I don't like SET for it --- SET is for setting state that will persist
over some period of time, not for taking one-shot actions.  We could
perhaps use a function that checks that it's been called by the
superuser.

However, the real question is what is the use-case for this feature
anyway.  Why should people want to reset the stats while the system
is running?  If we had a clear example then it might be more apparent
what restrictions to place on it.
