Looks good. I'm sure we'll find some more issues as we go along.
This is slightly unrelated, but what kind of switches should client
libraries have to control the level of detail that the application sees?
Most interfaces that are standardized outside of PostgreSQL have only one
error message function, so I'm afraid what will happen is that they paste
it all together by default and the distinction between primary and detail
will become moot. And I think I do want the detail in the server log,
too.

I suggest the chapter with the source code formatting issues, as part of a
general "coding style".
