I also am leaning towards treating this as v19 material. It's a nontrivial behavior change, and this option is useful for major version upgrades, which is an area that we really don't want to surprise users too much. Furthermore, auto-analyze doesn't process partitioned tables, either, so this introduces a bit of divergence. (I'd love to see that project picked up again someday. Perhaps I will take a gander...) -- nathan
