#3391: For "parent" tables with INHERITS st_estimatedextent might collect the
extent from the "child" tables
-------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  elpaso       |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  enhancement  |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium       |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.2.1
Component:  postgis      |    Version:  2.2.x
 Keywords:               |
-------------------------+---------------------------
 This problem arises when dealing with huge parent tables that have
 "children" with INHERITS.
 Even if the children tables have statistics and return st_estimatedextent
 correctly, running  st_estimatedextent on the parent table return an
 error:

 ERROR:  stats for "base_table_good.geom" do not exist

 Would it be possible to return the st_estimatedextent collecting that of
 the children tables (if available) instead of returning an error?
