Absolutely. You don't really want FDWs having to take responsibility
for setrefs.c processing of their node trees, for example. This is why
e.g. ForeignScan has both fdw_exprs and fdw_private.
I'm not too concerned about whether we have to adjust FDW-related APIs
as we go along. It's been clear from the beginning that we'd have to
do that, and we are nowhere near a point where we should promise that
we're done doing so.
