That would be a halfy-baked feature then, and the patch would finish by being refactored anyway if we support more cases in the future, because those will need a tree walker (think CTAS, INSERT SELECT, using WITH queries that contain DMLs)... Personally I think that it would be surprising if subqueries are not restrained. So I am -1 for the patch as-is, and let's come up with the most generic approach. Having more regression tests would be a good idea as well. I am marking the patch as returned with feedback.
