If we actually know the overhead I think it'd be very useful at times to
be able to remove it, especially if you're actually trying to compare to
the planner estimates. Maybe worth adding an option to the command?

The real question is how important it is to have the real data in the
cases where it would make a difference, and I suspect we can't answer
that until this is out in the field. It *might* be worth a #define or
some other way to disable it that doesn't require patching code, but
probably not.
