This can be a tricky one. Portions of this new code rely on code that
is much older than it, so this choice is just to be on the safe side
(aka I've chosen that).

Thanks. I have tweaked that a bit more, switching to GROUP BY clauses
based on the inherited field, and also added a check for the lock
level we take on the relation, by bundling a call within a
transaction. Then applied the result.

I have a bunch of other changes for the rest of the patch set, that
needs to be refreshed based on the choices we had to deal with for the
clear function. I'll send that in a couple of hours, before moving on
with more reviews next week..
