I see, because `DO` is a statement, not an expression. Thus arguments don't really make much sense (I wish it was an expression!).

I don't think it's a good idea to tie SQL syntax to a feature of a client, though.



Me either.

I think we need to take this more slowly. Frankly, I think we have most of what we really wanted already, and I suspect anything else is probably not worth the code complexity involved. The original motivation as I understood it was to enable people to embed a piece of pl/foo in a script with minimal syntactic overhead, and I think that's been achieved.
