"Allow NOTIFY in conditional rules" would be an approximation. It's
not the whole story though, because presently we also have to fail
if the rule is applied to a query with conditions, even if the rule
itself is unconditional. As of my last commit:
regression=# create rule r1 as on update to int4_tbl do notify foo;
CREATE
regression=# update int4_tbl set f1 = f1;
UPDATE 5
regression=# update int4_tbl set f1 = f1 where f1 < 0;
ERROR: Conditional NOTIFY is not implemented
which is pretty ugly but at least it doesn't pretend to do something
it can't, which was the 7.0 behavior. (In 7.0 you'd have gotten a
NOTIFY whether the update updated any rows or not.)
