Well, yes. Do you have any thoughts around such future usages of
ProcArrayGroupClearXid()?

AFICS, there are many places in the code that use proc == MyProc (20
instances) or proc != MyProc (6 instances) sorts of things. I think
defining a macro, something like below, is better for readability.
However, I'm concerned that we might have to use it in 26 places.
#define IsPGPROCMine(proc) (proc != NULL && proc == MyProc)
or just
#define IsPGPROCMine(proc) (proc == MyProc)
