Hi, I reviewed v5, applied it to the current master, and ran the postgres_fdw regression tests. The patch applies cleanly and the tests pass.
Would it also make sense to emit a NOTICE or WARNING from postgres_fdw_validator() in option.c when batch_size is set to a value greater than PQ_QUERY_PARAM_MAX_LIMIT? That would notify the user immediately during CREATE or ALTER, while still accepting the value and preserving the existing behavior. The existing tests cover cases where the messages are emitted, but I think it may also be useful to cover the exact boundaries and the cases where no message should be emitted. For a two-parameter foreign insert, batch_size = 32767 should not produce a DEBUG1 message, while batch_size = 32768 should be reduced to 32767. Similarly, for a single parameter, batch_size = 65535 should not produce a warning, while 65536 should.
