I'm not totally opposed to this. My rationale for making it an error
is that the developer could have test cases where all the buffers are
consumed but the code is written such that that won't always happen.
Then if a real production query doesn't consume all the buffers, it
could return wrong results (I think). That will mean the user can't
complete their query until the extension author releases a new version
of their code. But I'm not sure what the right answer is here.
