I agree that forcing an API break is better.  Just a nit:

+ *    readOnlyTree: treat pstmt's node tree as read-only

Maybe it's because I'm not a native english speaker, or because it's quite
late here, but I don't find "treat as read-only" really clear.  I don't have a
concise better wording to suggest.
