I was actually thinking exactly the opposite. pg_stat_activity viewed in
pgadmin GUI is going to format the table perfectly fine, but with
everthing on one line it will be next to impossible to understand
anything complex.
I would imagine psql will also be easier to read using human placed \n's
rather than random ones at the terminal width.
Perhaps the environment I work in isn't the normal case, but usually if
I'm trying to track something down, it's the complex 10 table join,
multi-subselect report style query that someone in account management
just happens to be running but poorly formed.

Yup.. Same way you group entries by PID, then reset the PID the next
time you see a new connection formed with it.
