EXECUTE INTO

From

I noticed 7.4 has an EXECUTE INTO statement that is a prepared form of
SELECT INTO.  But since SELECT INTO is sort of less preferred than CREATE
TABLE AS for several reasons, would it not be better if we named that
statement CREATE TABLE ... AS EXECUTE plan_name?  That form would make
more sense to me.
