Well, considering that we are still afraid to pull the trigger on
changing the standard_conforming_strings default, it's a bit premature
to claim that it "worked" for SQL.  But I agree that some kind of
stepwise process will be necessary if we want to try to change this.

IIRC there was some discussion of using plpgsql's (undocumented) #option
syntax to control this, rather than having a GUC that would be specific
to plpgsql.
