No, you're missing the point. Essentially all the client libraries
offer their own autocommit behavior on top of what the spec says.
libpq is alone in not having any such client-side logic. So it's not
a foregone conclusion that we should implement autocommit on/off logic
on the server side as a substitute for adding it to libpq. We have
now tried doing it on the server side, and we are finding that we don't
like the side-effects; so it's time to revisit that decision.
