Hmm. Can we optimize for the KNN case, without causing the issues which
you warned about earlier in your post? I'm really wary of any
"optimization" which operates completely outside of the cost model; the
ones we have (abort-early plans, for example) are already among our
primary sources of bad plan issues.
