Thank you all for this work and especially to Julian for its major
contribution !

Regarding the TODO point: Yes I agree that it can be improved.
My proposal:

"Note that planning and execution statistics are updated only at their
respective end phase, and only for successfull operations.
For exemple executions counters of a long running SELECT query,
will be updated at the execution end, without showing any progress
report in the interval.
Other exemple, if the statement is successfully planned but fails in
the execution phase, only its planning statistics are stored.
This may give uncorrelated plans vs calls informations."
