See example here:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/4580ff7b-d610-eaeb-e06f-4d686896b93b%402ndquadrant.com

More simply, you can already do this with psql like this:

=> SELECT * FROM tbl1\; SELECT * FROM tbl2;

This will ship multiple result sets.  psql chooses to only display the
last one.  This is also discussed in the above thread.
