Maybe a documents patch is a good idea. Your planner patches for
partitioning are only going to widen the performance gap between
generating a plan where many partitions are pruned vs generating a
generic plan where no partition could be pruned. I can only imagine
this will cause problems for more people as that gap widens as it will
likely lead to more and more people with partitioned tables with high
numbers of partitions.
