This is not at all what Simon proposed. He wants to make it a backend 
command, not a psql command.

I don't have a horse in the race, particularly. If we really want more 
utility commands, my preference would be to concentrate on those that 
are hard rather than those that could be easily done, e.g. a command 
that would give you the SQL necessary to create a given object.
