Hmm. If we wanted to completely redesign the libpq API, and thereby
break every frontend application there is, this'd be a good idea.
I wasn't looking to do that. I figured an incremental improvement
to libpq was what was called for.

Yup, I guess that sounds more sane and doable. It was just a thought.
