Well, this is actually a question for Angelo but I find current behavior as being a very nice feature to keep.
Other partitions of the same table/index are not actually "dependent structures", they are part of the same table/index structure, I would say they are "peer structures".
Dropping "dependent structures" ensures consistency.
Dropping "peer structures" would destroy consistency.
Does it makes sense?
