I wonder if we could devise another kind of extended statistic that

an interesting approach: they have a WHERE clause attached to
statistics. So, having implemented this, you may separate the whole
range of values inside the table into 'partitions' by such a WHERE
condition.
It may solve at least one issue with the 'dependencies' statistics: a
single number describing the dependency between any two values in the
columns often leads to incorrect estimations, as I see.
