Does this mean that clients that use PREPARE/Parse need to handle "plan invalidated" as a possible response to EXECUTE/Bind, or will the backend keep the query string / parse tree around and replan on next execution?
The latter -- the client won't be aware that replanning took place. (If your prepared queries take minutes of planning time, perhaps this is something you *would* like to be made aware of, however...)
