It'd mean a forced initdb, which is not great, but unless 0ff20288e
gets reverted there'd be no additional impact on beta testers.

A bigger problem with what you describe is that I don't really think
the planner should be mucking with the input parse tree like that.
Can't we retain this information somewhere else instead, in storage
associated with the PlannerInfo?
