BTW, so far as the HEAD version of this patch goes, I notice that
ATTACH PARTITION and DETACH PARTITION were recently added to the
list of exceptions. But they're not exceptions according to this
wording: they act on more than one table (the parent and the
partition), no? So we could simplify the sentence some more by
removing them again.
