Yeah, I think the basics of this could be committed, but have later
improvements that let you fine-tune when the reload happens better.

I think that NOTICE after every command is the only way we'll make sure
to catch every user who should be notified about the feature's limitation.
I was thinking of something like this:
NOTICE: New configuration is written but not applied yet. Signal the
server to reload settings using pg_reload_conf to activate the change.
Maybe that's a NOTICE plus a HINT.
