I also think it is a reasonable solution. In addition, please note that the following case: | postgres=# SELECT t1 FROM t1; | t1 | --------- | (1,aaa) | (2,bbb) | (3,ccc) When we refer table-rowtype, analyzer handles its Var->varattno has InvalidAttrNumber (=0). If SQL standard mention nothing, it is quite natural to consider it refers whole of the user columns. I think it can share the code to handle the above empty cols_sel cases.
