The thing is that id_column_1 is really dependent on id_column_2. So
there's really no point in scanning the index on id_column_1. In fact, if I
remove that in clause for id_column_1 from the query, I get a better plan:

I thought maybe extended statistics would help, so I did this:
create statistics test (dependencies) on id_column_2, id_column_1 from
test_table;
analyze test_table;
But the plan was nearly identical to the first plan with the BitmapAND even
after creating the extended statistics:

So, I'm just wondering if there's anything I can do to influence the
optimize to pick the better plan using just the one index on id_column_2
(aside from re-writing the query).
Thanks,
