I don't think it should be possible for the parent to be changed. I
mean, the partition key is altogether immutable -- it can't be changed
after creation time. The partition bounds can be changed for
individual partitions but that would require a lock on the partition.
Can you give an example of the kind of scenario about which you are concerned?
