What was originally going to be 8.5 was renumbered to be 9.0.  None of 
the planned partitioning improvements are included in it.  The changes 
planned there aren't a large as you seem to think they are though.  
Partitions will still be inherited tables, the improvements are just 
going to reduce the amount of setup/trigger code you need to write and 
make management tasks easier.
