I didn't. I was copying the postgres_fdw and noticed it implemented them
directly.
Is there an issue with handling it ahead of time? In the case of ogr_fdw,
there is an extra call after getting list of tables to get the data
structure for a specific table,
So I thought implementing it directly would save some cycles, especially
since some data sources require inspection of the data to infer the
structure so could be very expensive.
Thanks,
Regina
