Having lots of interested people doesn't help with some problems,
though.  The Citus document says:

        And the issue with these four limitations wasn't with foreign
        data wrappers. We wrote mongo_fdw and cstore_fdw, and we're
        quite happy with the contract FDWs provide. The problem was that
        we were trying to retrofit an API for something that it was
        fundamentally not designed to do.
