That makes sense. But that part is not in Amul's patch -- he was only on about removing the is_foreign_table Boolean. If I remove the if/else block change, does the rest of the patch looks something we'd want to have? I kinda agree that the redundant variable is "ugly". Is it worth removing? My hunch is no. -- Álvaro Herrera 39°49'30"S 73°17'W
