Folks,
We have a very unfortunate naming situation with Jeff Davis's new
feature, namely the shorter name, which is one permutation away from
an existing and entirely unrelated feature: Constraint Exclusion,
which has to do with queries over partitioned tables and like
entities.
Renaming it, which I believe we should do Really Soon(TM), to Operator
[Exclusion] Constraints would fix this problem.
Cheers,
David.
