For example it is possible to get a tree from an index, which is incorrect. I would suggest to restrain the root relation to be either a relation, a partitioned table or a foreign table. 2) What about the users who can have a look at a tree? Shouldn't we tighten that a bit more? I am sure it is not fine to allow any user to look at what a partition tree looks like, hence only the owner of the root should be able to look at its tree, no? -- Michael
