Functions are just black boxes to the planner.
... unless the function is a SQL function that is trivial enough for the planner to inline it into the plan of the invoking query. Currently, we won't inline set-returning SQL functions that are used in the query's rangetable, though. This would be worth doing, I think -- I'm not sure how much work it would be, though.
