This request allows a support function to replace a function call appearing in FROM (typically a set-returning function) with an equivalent SELECT subquery. The subquery will then be subject to the planner's usual optimizations, potentially allowing a much better plan to be generated. While the planner has long done this automatically for simple SQL-language functions, it's now possible for extensions to do it for functions outside that group. Notably, this could be useful for functions that are presently implemented in PL/pgSQL and work by generating and then EXECUTE'ing a SQL query.
