I have a hard time seeing how this would work if cursors are in use on
the main server. Say I do this:

DECLARE foo CURSOR FOR SELECT * FROM ft1 UNION ALL SELECT * FROM ft2;
...fetch some rows from cursor foo but few enough that we only scan ft1...
...do something that causes a snapshot refresh like issue another query...
...fetch more rows from cursor foo until we start scanning ft2...
