Well, not really.  7.1 changed this behavior to depend on the
sql_inheritance GUC.  It wasn't till v10 when we removed that GUC
(see e13486eba) that you could really safely assume that an
undecorated table name includes child tables.  So I think we should
say it's obsolete since v10 not 7.1.

Pushed with those changes.
