Isn't calling pg_stat_reset_shared() for all stats types helping you
out? Is there any problem with it? Can you be more specific about the
use-case?
IMV, I don't see any point for adding another pseudo (rather
non-existent) shared stats target which might confuse users - it's
easy to specify pg_stat_reset_shared('all'); to clear things out when
someone actually doesn't want to reset all - an accidental usage of
the 'all' option will reset all shared memory stats.
