I did it, on the basis that you stated that you prefered not adding
pg_sleep(TEXT) to answer Robert Haas concern about preserving
pg_sleep('10') current functionality, and that no other solution was
suggested to tackle this issue.
If I'm mistaken, feel free to change the state back to what is
appropriate.
My actual opinion is that breaking pg_sleep('10') is no big deal, but I'm
nobody here, and Robert is somebody, so I think that his concern must be
addressed.
