We aren't following T-SQL on any other syntax detail, so why would we
start with this one? plpgsql is meant to follow Oracle syntax not T-SQL.
I agree with David that we should use some new syntax to specify
return-results-directly-to-client, assuming we ever get any such
functionality. It seems like a pretty bad choice of default behavior,
which is essentially what you're saying it should be.
