What is this for?  Why is it a good idea?  It appears to be a fairly
enormous increase in the size of libpq's API, and I really don't think
I want to buy into the idea that libpq should know explicitly about each
and every backend datatype.  The 100% lack of any documentation in the
patch isn't helping you sell it, BTW.
