I wasn't sure about that, because of the overhead, but now that I look
at it, it's supposed to be cheaper than changing the ps_status in some
cases, so I guess there's no harm.
The other argument to support the case that this should be done is that
the docs suggest that you should use prepared statements instead, which
do have the reporting overhead.
