I think you need to

 a) Determine the user-id at planning time, and insert the matching
    RLS clause

b1) Either re-plan the query if the user-id changes between planning
    and execution time, which means making the user-id a part of the
    plan-cache key.

b2) Or decree that for RLS purposes, it's the user-id at planning time,
    not execution time, that counts.
