OK, I like this idea a lot, but I have a question.  Right now, to use
this, you have to supply the startup SQL on the command line.  And
that could definitely be useful.  But ISTM that you might also want to
take the startup SQL from a file, and indeed you might well want to
include metacommands in there.  Maybe that's getting greedy, but the
rate at which people are adding features to pgbench suggests to me
that it won't be long before this isn't enough.

Thoughts?
