Hi, I have created a small patch to postgres source (in particular the psql part of it) that accepts trailing comma at the end of list in SELECT statement.
It is ANSI/SQL ?
Why we should to enable? We can be tolerant to this bug, but then developers will hate us, when they will try to port to other servers.
-1 from me

The idea is to be able to say both (with the same result): SELECT a, b, c from t; SELECT a, b, c, from t;
Attached you can find a patch containing regression test (incorporated into the serial_schedule). My patch is relative to origin/REL9_4_STABLE branch as that is the one I started from.
My plea is to have this change merged into the main stream so that it becomes available in upcoming releases.
This modification does not require any interaction with user. It does not create any backward compatibility issues. Not does it have any performance impact.
