Yeah, I was wondering if we shouldn't revisit the whole patch given that
where we're ending up looks little like where we thought we were going.
I hadn't had time to pursue the idea, but I'm glad you did. Will look
at these.
One reason to stick with approach (a) is that it gives us the option
to easily add PQgetRowData(), in case future testing shows that that's
actually worth the risk and usage restrictions. While I'm a bit dubious
of that, I'm prepared to be proven wrong.
