I was thinking of moving a set of partitioned tables using inheritance
(done in PG 96.) to the new(ish) range partitioning available in 10/11/12...

My plan was to make another schema and create the new range-partitioned
tables, then copy the data into them, then drop the older tables and re-set
the schema for the new partitioned tables to the old schema, essentially
meaning the new partitioned tables will take the place of the older tables
when I am ready. Same exact structure, just different under the hood.

Any issues with this plan? Will changing the schema of the new partitioned
table break anything?
