The new partition will have a property specified when the user creates it.  
That is, while the storage property of each storage unit (=partition) is 
basically independent, ALTER TABLE on a partitioned table is a convenient way 
to set the same property value to all its underlying storage units.

I got an impression from the discussion that some form of consensus on the 
principle was made and you were trying to create a fix for REPLICA IDENTITY.  
Do you think the principle was unclear and we should state it first (partly to 
refresh people's memories)?

I'm kind of for it, but I'm hesitant to create the fix for all ALTER actions, 
because it may take a lot of time and energy as you were afraid.  Can we define 
the principle, and then create individual fixes independently based on that 
principle?
