I was thinking along the same lines. This will involve a bit more code
in psql, but I think that's better than trying to get the backend to do
this work for us, for one thing, we want psql to support multiple major
versions and that could be done by adding code to psql, but couldn't be
done for released versions if we depend on the backend to solve this
matching for us.

Thanks,

Stephen
