Cannot readily test this presently but I wonder what the following produces:

psql -c "begin; select statement_timestamp(), transaction_timestamp();
select statement_timestamp(), transaction_timestamp(); commit; begin;
select statement_timestamp(), transaction_timestamp(); commit;"

Transaction timestamp should progress while statement timestamp should not,
right?
