Thanks Tom.

The issues around ALTER etc pretty much put it in the
not-worth-caring-about bucket. The issues around parameter typing alone...

I think we just need to add support for client-side parameter binding of
literals with a client-side flag, or by detecting statement type. So
users still get to use bind parameters, but PgJDBC deals with the details.
