The same idea was the reason for my proposal to make automatic partitioning
clauses to be in accordance with existing declarative syntax (even if it
seems little bit long to write words "configuration (for values" )

CREATE TABLE foo(a int) PARTITION BY LIST(a) CONFIGURATION (FOR VALUES
IN (1,2),(3,4) DEFAULT PARTITION foo_def);
CREATE TABLE foo(a int) PARTITION BY HASH(a) CONFIGURATION (FOR VALUES
WITH MODULUS 3);
CREATE TABLE foo(a int) PARTITION BY RAGE(a) CONFIGURATION (FOR VALUES
FROM 1 TO 1000 INTERVAL 10 DEFAULT PARTITION foo_def)

If we want generic (ident = value,...) then we need to introduce different
to what is already committed for manual partitioning which I considered
worse than my proposal above. Still other opinions are highly valued.
