One approach I came up with to fix this issue is to rewrite the targetList entries of an inherited UPDATE/DELETE properly using rewriteTargetListUD, when generating a plan for each child table in inheritance_planner. Attached is a WIP patch for that. Maybe I am missing something, though.

While updating the patch, I noticed the patch rewrites the UPDATE targetList incorrectly in some cases; rewrite_inherited_tlist I added to adjust_appendrel_attrs (1) removes all junk items from the targetList and (2) adds junk items for the child table using rewriteTargetListUD, but it's wrong to drop all junk items in cases where there are junk items for some other reasons than rewriteTargetListUD. Consider junk items containing MULTIEXPR SubLink. One way I came up with to fix this is to change (1) to only remove junk items with resname; since junk items added by rewriteTargetListUD should have resname (note: we would need resname to call ExecFindJunkAttributeInTlist at execution time!) while other junk items wouldn't have resname (see transformUpdateTargetList), we could correctly replace junk items added by rewriteTargetListUD for the parent with ones for the child, by that change. I might be missing something, though. Comments welcome.
