ISTM that we're all for:

   creating a new column: state
   renaming current_query => query

   State will display <RUNNING>, <IDLE>, <IDLE> in transaction, etc...
   query will display the last query that was executed.

I've written this up in the attached patch, looking for feedback. (NB:
Originally I was using 9.1.1 release, I just did a git clone today to
generate this).
