    Description

      row_end is not used when searching by PRIMARY KEY

      create table t (pk int primary key) with system versioning;
      insert into t values (1), (2);
      explain extended delete from t where pk=1;
      id	select_type	table	type	possible_keys	key	key_len	ref	rows	filtered	Extra
      1	SIMPLE	t	range	PRIMARY	PRIMARY	4	NULL	1	100.00	Using where
      explain extended update t set pk=11 where pk=1;
      id	select_type	table	type	possible_keys	key	key_len	ref	rows	filtered	Extra
      1	SIMPLE	t	range	PRIMARY	PRIMARY	4	NULL	1	100.00	Using where; Using buffer
      

      Both queries should affect only current system rows. In both queries PK is used which consists of (pk, row_end). row_end = current_timestamp is implied and it would be useful to use second keypart for filtering. But EXPLAIN shows only 4 bytes of key is used which means pk only.

      Using row_end will not change correctness. But it can speed up some queries a bit.
