Well, the other thing we could do is tweak the rules for when to print a
complaint. I notice that in check_temp_tablespaces we use the rule
source == PGC_S_SESSION (ie, SET) -> errorsource == PGC_S_TEST (testing value for ALTER SET) -> noticeelse -> silently
ignorebad name
which seems like it could be applied to search_path without giving
anyone grounds for complaint. I'm still in favor of the previous patch
for HEAD, but maybe we could do this in 9.1.
