Thanks. I pushed now after some more tweaking, including your suggested
corrections. I removed the examples, because they were both wrong. We
can give this more polish if anybody has the energy, but I think we're
in a pretty decent place now.

I'm not convinced that we need to show so much detail on pruning as
proposed by Robert elsewhere; we didn't have a lot of detail for
exclusion either and I don't have any evidence that it was a terrible
problem for users. Also, one possible use of the new GUC is that you
can compare plans if you so wish.
