I would expect the "current query input buffer" to be what is used to
enter the next query. When you hit enter that goes into the "current query
buffer" (as the entered query is now officially complete and thus becomes
the current query) and then "current query input buffer" is cleared for
the next action to be dealt with, be it a query or psql command.
