I need to resolve expressions and apply rewrite rules before I reverse the query plan to a query. >It seems far simpler to me to make use of ruleutils.c to reverse-list >the original parsetree.

I'm aware of ruleutils.c which I think is a good tool but I don't think it's appropriate as it takes the parse tree as input.
