I think a warning is missing if I create a table without OIDS that inherits from a table with oids:
don't you think a warning shall to be raised here ?
Nope ... this is not different from the behavior for merging duplicate column definitions. You get an OID column if the child table definition *or* any parent table requests OIDs.
Mmm, you are not convincing me, don't we break the principle of minor surprise?
I mean if you duplicate a column name that column is present on the inherited
table, but if I say: I don't want the column OID and I found it, this then
surprise me.
Peter, what do you think about it ?
