Yes, that didn't change. The issue was only reading data from postgres
to python.

There is a beta of next psycopg version available on testpypi which
implements the new behaviour, if you want to take a look at it. You
can use

pip install -i https://testpypi.python.org/pypi psycopg2==2.7b1

to install it.
