I thought I had send an email asking for comments back when this was
implemented. But given that I cannot this email anymore I wonder if it
really went out. My bay, sorry.

Given that people seem to use this feature I'm more than willing to
implement it, although it might become a bit hackish. Given that fetch
is not a preparable statement we can live with the slightly inconsistent
variable handling I think.

Expect a patch soon.
