Just to throw more fuel on the fire. Relvar inheritance is, 
according to Chris Date, one of the two Great Blunders in database 
engineering over the past twenty years.

Multiple Domain Inheritance: Yes
Relation Variable Inheritance: No

I think it'd be a fair statement that Date & Darwen would have the 
relvar inheritance ripped out of PostgreSQL as an experiment gone bad...
