The pg_class.h comment looked fine for me first. How would you reword
it?
relispartition tells "True if table is a partition", which is not
actually true as it can apply to indexes. So this should be changed in
v11 as well, no?
For relhassubclass, perhaps we could do a bit more than just referring
to children... What about the following:
"True if relation has (or once had) any inheritance children or
partitions"
Here is the current formulation:
"True if table has (or once had) any inheritance children"
And this should be changed in v10~ additionally?
