I don't believe that code can get executed given the current backend
design. I just put it in because the protocol spec says (and always
has said)
Note: At present, NotificationResponse can only be sent outside a
transaction, and thus it will not occur in the middle of a
command-response series, though it might occur just before
ReadyForQuery. It is unwise to design frontend logic that assumes that,
however. Good practice is to be able to accept NotificationResponse at
any point in the protocol.
