Hey all, looking for thoughts on a feature request:

I run quite a few queries, using psql, that are intended for exceptional
situations.  When there are no results, which is expected, I still get the
table header and basic frame showing up in the output.  The option I'd like
is to be able to suppress the output of the empty table (and header if
there is one) or possibly substitute the empty table with user-supplied
text.

Thinking something that is used like \g

SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1)) vals (v) WHERE v = 0 \ghideifempty

[SQL] \galtifempty 'No values matching 0 in vals'

The names are descriptive, not suggestions...
