On the other hand, you could argue that improving the string is going

would ever show this message to users and so its readability would not
matter.
Could we return a HINT? Or is that part of the same string?
I agree that it's probably not worth breaking people that are doing the
right thing. Perhaps this could be better documented, though I don't
know where we'd put it (I doubt users would go looking in the libpq api
docs to find it...)
