Right, but in my experience it's an extremely uncommon pattern and much
more likely to be a mistake (that ends up being very time consuming to
debug). That's why I think something like a NOTICE or even a WARNING
would be useful. The only thing I don't like about that idea is if you
ever did actually want this behavior you'd have to do something to
squash the ereport. Though, that's a problem we already have in some
places, so perhaps not worth worrying about.
