If that's the case, I would recommend to add at least something in the

No need for it in the backend, unless there are plans to switch from

libpq, ecpg and anything using them have to care about that. Worth
noting that OpenSSL also has some special handling in libpq with
CRYPTO_get_id_callback() and that it tracks the number of opened
connections.
