It wasn't my idea, but I thought it was a good one. But it would go
along with the idea of these settings as a list instead of a hierarchy,
e.g.:

log_statement = "syntax-errors, ddl, mod"

In fact, I liked it so much that I thought "syntax-errors" should be the
default instead of "none".

I think I'd prefer that to having it tied to the log_min_error_statement
level. But I don't care that much.
