If it was configurable via \set and I could drop it in my .psqlrc, and
it knew not to only do it after a few seconds (otherwise it'd be far too
much)...

I don't like how the backend would have to send something NOTICE-like, I
had originally been thinking "gee, it'd be nice if psql could query
pg_stat while doing something else", but that's not really possible...
So, I guess NOTICE-like messages would work, if the backend could be
taught to do it.

        Thanks,
