I believe Fernando Nasser at Red Hat is currently working on backend
changes to do this properly; so I recommend we not apply the psql hack.
The notion of customizing the psql prompt based on
in-an-xact-block-or-not seems cool; but I do not see how to do it
reliably without a protocol change, and it's not worth that.
