Yeah, I remember looking at it a bit and finding it quite an
intimidating piece of code. I'm just asking because it would be nice
if we got the infrastructure into this release in time to do something
with it - specifically, I'd like to find a way for FDWs to push down
aggregates, a capability for which EDB has had multiple customer
requests (and I'm sure we're not the only ones).
