I agree on that point. I plan to rewrite direct modify using upper
planner path-ification; I think we would no longer need the planner API
PlanDirectModify, but I expect the executor/explain APIs (ie,
BeginDirectModify, IterateDirectModify, EndDirectModify, and
ExplainDirectModify) would be still useful after that rewrite. Before
that, however, I'd like to work on extend postgres_fdw so as to handle
more cases such as UPDATE/DELETE on a join and INSERT, with the existing
API.
I'd really be quite happy to see you take a more active hand
in the FDW discussions; clearly, you've got a lot of understanding of
that area that is pretty much unique to you. I'd even support an
effort to rewrite the work that has already been done in a form more
to your liking, but I think you'd need to actually pay attention to
the threads on a somewhat regular basis in order that to be practical.
