I mentioned postgres table inheritance at the meeting tonight. It does appear that inherited tables are exposed by the database as a real table. This leads me to believe that Class::DBI will work properly on an inherited table.
There are some caveats with inheritance, but it doesn't appear that this affects how queries are handled. > A serious limitation of the inheritance feature is that indexes > (including unique constraints) and foreign key constraints only apply > to single tables, not to their inheritance children.
