Not a committer, so I don't really get a vote here, but I think it's
useful and I've written a "RAISE" wrapper in plpgsql enough times to
think it's useful. I've used it for tracing progress of queries, for
aborting queries on error conditions, all sorts of things.
-1 for any attempt to bypass log_min_messages etc. If we were going to
go there we should do it with proper heirachical logging control, not
a special case half measure.
