Hm. Isn't this going to blow up the size of the file in cases with a
number of parameters quite considerably, a file limit notwithstanding?
Wonder if the size limit wouldn't have to be across all params.
I'm also pretty sure that not everyone will be happy, for privacy / data
minimalism reasons, that some bind parameters are suddenly preserved?
That could very well include passwords and whatnot! I don't think we
can have the same view as done already show these, without causing
issues for users that do want to grant wider access to pgss, but not
show bind parameters for everyone.
