I would second this precise interest. It really annoys me more often
than anything else that when I try to copy/paste an sql query I need
to copy each line one by one. It would be different from MySql but I
think it would be even clearer to the user:
postgres=> select 1,
/*line 2:*/ 2,
/*line 3:*/ 3;?column? | ?column? | ?column?
----------+----------+---------- 1 | 2 | 3
(1 row)
