Huh? That's a waste of time and effort. Just make sure that each such
spot has its own Param number. That's why I'm telling you to do it in
the planner, not the parser --- it is easy to assign globally-unique-
across-the-plan numbers at plan time, in fact we do it already.

I'd vote against that too. PARAM_EXEC Params already have more than one
purpose.
