I'm not entirely sure why you're bothering; surely nulltestsel is
unrelated to what this patch is about? And would anybody really
write "WHERE ctid IS NULL"?
I found that it made a difference with selectivity of range comparisons, because clauselist_selectivity tries to correct for it (clausesel.c:274):
s2 = rqlist->hibound + rqlist->lobound - 1.0
/* Adjust for double-exclusion of NULLs */
s2 += nulltestsel(root, IS_NULL, rqlist->var,
varRelid, jointype, sjinfo);
It was adding DEFAULT_UNK_SEL = 0.005 to the selectivity, which (while not major) did make the selectivity less accurate.
However, if we do think it's worth adding code to cover this case,
I wouldn't make it specific to CTID. *All* system columns can be
assumed not null, see heap_getsysattr().
I guess we could have a standalone patch to add this for all system columns?
