Honestly, I like this approach. There is some additional overhead
during parsing, but it seems cleaner and more robust. Also, hopefully
in most cases where people are concerned about parse time they're
preparing their queries. If it's warrented, we could try doing
benchmarks to see how bad the impact is and if we need to do something
different. It doesn't strike me as likely to be a significant amount of
overhead though.
Thanks,
