My personal bias is to go to the standard behavior as the default at
some point.  For legacy reasons, I don't know that you would ever want
to remove the setting; especially since I don't think it adds much
code if you're going to support the E'...' literals.  The ugliest
thing about this GUC is that it adds some complications to the flex
code, but it doesn't seem that bad to me.
