What's not apparent to me is how one can avoid re-planning the query
every single time the function is called?
More generally, I think that the average programmer would rather just
not be bothered with all these details; he'd want to write
for (row in spi.query("...sql..." [, arguments])) { ...
I don't object to exposing the machinery for those who like to play with
such stuff, but you should have shortcuts to keep the simple things
simple.
