Now I wonder, it's the psql program or the client library that does
that? Shall I expect the same from within, say, PHP, Perl, Python, C?
Is it a (settable) option of the client code? If not, I expect psql
to have some kind of SQL parser embedded, in order not to be fooled
by such a query: "select * from tab where f1 = 'a;b;c'".
