I designed a schema which would benefit from inheritance (in particular,
an index over more than one table).

However, I read that inheritance is not really implemented yet. So I
simulated it with extra indexes and extra joins.

Is there any plan / timetable for implementing inheritance (with proper
index support)?

As far as I know, no one is working on that. It's on the TODO list
though:

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match
