Sometimes, the developers add comments to the top of statements, and so we see that in pg_stat_activity.query as seen in this example:
select query from pg_stat_activity where pid = 1054079; query ----------------------------------------
-- Some comment written by the developer SELECT blah blah FROM .blah
I could case-insensitively search pg_stat_activity.query for "SELECT " but that will fail if there is a SELECT in the CTE or subquery of a DELETE or UPDATE statement, and writing a parser to strip out all comments is a bit too much effort for a simple query.
