 It would be good to have an insert behaviour similar to Oracle by default.

OK, thanks.

 Also I see that the original table is always scanned, partition exclusion

Yes, though if you avoid placing any rows in that table it is quick.

I expect to remove that restriction in 8.2 by declarative SQL.

 without specifically naming them in insert statements (in other words you
 insert into table, the engine redirects data to the corrisponding
 partition), 

This is correct
