We've got way too many tests like that already, ie, a bunch of
mostly-redundant functional tests of isolated new features.
Most of the code I worry about there isn't any simple way to
test from the SQL level --- the fact that a query gives the
right answer doesn't prove it went through a particular part
of the planner, for example.
I think we need some intelligent test design, not tests thrown in
to meet a rule.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
