Hackers,

There are some GUCs you can set in a context which will accept them, yet
they have no effect when you do.  For example, I can call SET
statement_timeout inside a function, and it has no effect whatsoever.

I'm wondering if we should be throwing a warning in these cases.  And
how many such cases there are.  Thoughts?
