I think this is a very nice feature so that planner would be able to
create smarter plan for a query which uses foreign tables.
I took a look at the patch, and found that it couldn't be applied
cleanly against HEAD. Please rebase your patch against current HEAD of
master branch, rather than 9.1beta1.
The wiki pages below would be helpful for you. http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Submitting_a_Patch
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Creating_Clean_Patcheshttp://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Reviewing_a_Patch
And it would be easy to use git to follow changes made by other
developers in master branch. http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Working_with_Git
