About the planning behavior ?
With USING, I get a seqscan (cost and long), without USING I have an
indexscan(short and costless).
And the pg_stat* views confirm that the index is not used.
I think that the relevant code is in exec_dynquery_with_params(...).
The SPI_cursor_open_with_args receive a complete string, or a string +
params.
My use case is very simple: EXECUTE 'SELECT status FROM ' || l_partname::regclass || ' WHERE uid = ' ||
quote_literal(p_uid) INTO r.flag;
vs
EXECUTE 'SELECT status FROM ' || l_partname::regclass || ' WHERE uid = $1' USING p_uid INTO r.flag;
(here it is not bad, but I was very happy to be able to do a safe uid
= ANY ($1), with p_uid an array in another context.)
