So, I have been looking at this problem, and I don't see a problem in
doing something like the attached, where we add a "regress" mode to
compute_query_id that is a synonym of "auto". Or, in short, we have
the default of letting a module decide if a query ID can be computed
or not, at the exception that we hide its result in EXPLAIN outputs.
Julien, what do you think?
FWIW, about your question of upthread, I have noticed the behavior
while testing, but I know of some internal customers that enable
pg_stat_statements and like doing tests on the PostgreSQL instance
deployed this way, so that would break. They are not on 14 yet as far
as I know.
