But, IIRC, only in the context of index searches, not at the planner level. 
ISTM the planner can't currently make strong assumptions on operators in 
order to simplify or analyze some parts of queries...

Oh, perfect then. I guess it simply shows I need to read up on PG architecture 
wrt to how planner/optimiser talk to each other.
