Do you mean the following wording
"BEFORE ROW triggers, if necessary, must be defined on individual
partitions, not the partitioned table."
suggests that user *can* create triggers on the partitioned table? I
guess I can see how one may read it that way. How about we make it say
something like:
"BEFORE ROW triggers are not supported on partitioned tables; a user can
still define them, if necessary, on individual partitions though."

So you mean that the existing wording *encourages* users to use the
feature to create BR triggers on individual partitions whereas it
shouldn't, that is, users can find out about that feature by themselves by
trying it out? I think the revised wording I proposed above isn't too
encouraging.
