Well, inheritance is not used for partitioning ONLY. So, yes, for *my*
use cases I would appreciate being able to tell triggers defined on
parent tables to run on child tables when an insert/update/delete
happens on a child table. (We use inheritance for auditing and for
data aggregation.)

But since I am not in a position to code the necessary infrastructure
I won't complain about the status quo.
