If you can include a link to the archives or the text of the relevant
mails, it seems fine to me. I'm not sure specifically _how_ we want to

Probably -- I think there is definitely room for improving psql's
handling of multi-line queries. However, \e works well enough for me,
and I don't think I'll get around to looking at this for 8.1. So feel
free to add a TODO item.

One interesting artifact of using \e to edit a multi-line command is
that the same command is then treated as a single-line command in
subsequent up-arrow or Ctrl-P attempts.
I use this frequently to achieve a similar effect to what you're after.
The one downside is that if you leave the psql s

That fails on at least three cases:

Is there a way to recall the previous command in psql? Obviously, "up
arrow" or Ctrl-P using readline and the default readline bindings is
close, but it recalls the previous _line_ of input. That is not at all
the same thing in the case of a multiple line command, for example.
