Hi Daniele,
what about the "_get_native_connection()" ?
That's the "capsule", and yes, I'd like to have it in 2.8. I think
Federico has already code in a branch. I think we are only wondering
whether to add one on the cursor to retrieve the native result. I
think we should: it would have been useful e.g. in cases like #661. We
have now exposing a way to retrieve the requested info but, if we had
had the capsule with the PGresult pointer, the OP could have used
ctypes or cffi to use the function from the libpq in the meantime.

Yes, I'll merge that tomorrow (no time today). I was for a name without the underscore but the MySQL guy has a point where he says that the client code should be warned that the driver can't guarantee API stability in this case (what if PGconn changes?). So, maybe `_get_native_connection()` is OK.
