The focus was to get the base functionality working, and working
correctly. Another consideration is that there's multiple ways to
accomplish the partitioning; exposing the basic functionality without
enforcing a given interface provides more flexibility (ie: it appears
that you can't do list partitioning with MySQL, while you can with
PostgreSQL).
