Yeah, but how big is the use-case? The reason I'm skeptical is that
half the time what you're going to get is "none":
$ psql
psql (16devel)
Type "help" for help.
regression=# show role;
role
------
none
(1 row)
That's required by SQL spec I believe, but that doesn't make it useful
data to keep in one's prompt.
