Clearly any client using libpq can conveniently call code which is in libpq.
Clearly there are clients that don't use libpq. JDBC comes to mind.
Indeed … as I mentioned up-thread already.
Are we saying that we want this to be available server side, and largely duplicated, specifically to cater to non-libpq users? I’ll put out there, again, the idea that perhaps we put it into the common library then and make it available via both libpq and as a server side function ..?
We also have similar code in postgres_fdw.. ideally, imv anyway, we’d not end up with three copies of it.
