Yeah, it's probably good to improve the error message, too; and that
suggestion seems as good as any.  But I still think it should be
ereport if it's user-facing.

My main concern was actually whether we ought to be detecting this
earlier in the process, before it gets as far as the executor.  I
haven't scrutinized the code though so have no particular reason to
believe it's not OK as-is.
