Hm. I started to edit it, but I'm halfway coming back to my previous
view that this isn't necessarily ready.

If a client were to to prepare a large number of prepared statements
(i.e. a lot of parse messages), this'll only start the timeout once, at
the first statement sent.  It's not an issue for libpq which sends a
sync message after each PQprepare, nor does it look to be an issue for
pgjdbc based on a quick look.

Does anybody think there might be a driver out there that sends a bunch
of 'parse' messages, without syncs?
