I played with the patch and with coloring of an output. It works neat.
On thing I noticed that some messages may have double log level. For
example:

$ psql test
psql: fatal: FATAL: database "test" does not exist

It is becase psql appends its own level and appends the message from a
server (including servers log level). I don't think that it is nasty,
but it may confuse someone. Notice that without the patch the output is:

$ psql test
psql: FATAL: database "test" does not exist
