As to the latter: sure. We've already hacked the formatting of the log
output quite a bit since 7.3. Better to hit them with this too now,
than spread the pain over multiple releases.
As to the former: the only thing that seems debatable to me is what to
do about the layout of the new multi-part ereport() messages. I would
be inclined to go for one line per part, viz
ERROR: blah blah blah
DETAIL: blah blah\nblah blah
HINT: blah blah\nblah blah\nblah blah
but perhaps someone would like to argue for somehow collapsing all this
to one line? If so, how exactly?
