Here is my feedback fro this patch,

- The patch is working as expected, all regression tests are passing
- I agree with Dilip that having similar mechanism for 'insert into
select...' statements would add more value to the patch, but even then
this looks like a good idea to extend parallelism for atleast a few of
the write operations
