I'd agree with that. Unless you have lots of $$$ and/or know someone

Well, clustered indexes mean different things to different vendors.
Oracle's implementation stores the data with the index as does SQL
Server, but in a little different fashion.

If I have to push the predicate down, I'll generally write a
set-returning function which takes some of the predicate, limit, and
offset info to build a dynamic sql query
and designed to replicate Oracle->MySQL, but you
could easily emulate the Oracle-side by creating triggers in PG to
capture the changes.
