Just cast the value in the WHERE clause:
select ts from mwdb.t_mv where zr=3622 and ts > '2006-01-01 00:00:00'
::TIMESTAMP order by ts asc limit 1;
This search only into the right partitioned tables if you build the rules
based in the ts field.

Ah, it might be do-able for some subset of cases, but is it
cost-effective to check for in *all* cases? Don't forget the constraints
and where clauses can be arbitrarily complex.
