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.
