Maybe, but the only reasonable place to put it would be within the
(SubPlan N) reference, which is not a place where verboseness would be
appreciated, I think. In principle it could look something like
(SubPlan N ($0 := b.oid))
but with a few parameters and a bunch of other stuff on the same line
that would get out of hand.

The (SubPlan N) reference is meant to be understood as an expression
element yielding the output of the subplan. One of us is confused,
because I don't see any material difference between your examples;
they're all calling the subplan in the same way.
