Dropping into the thread late, but two points:
For all of the standard reasons, different database clients should use
different usernames. In the limit, you could just make the username contain
the comment.
Beyond that, you can already accomplish 90% of what you'd want by simply
coding your queries as "/* Comment */ SELECT ...", and so on. For
connections which are not currently running a query, this won't work - but
in my experience, you usually don't care much about connections which aren't
currently running a query.

Bonjour,
I sent this post a few days ago but it didn't get a lot of
contributions.
Wouldn't it be an interresting feature ?
