That's a shame.
Aside from executing prepared statements, parameters are also useful for preventing SQL injections. Under those cases, they are useful for all commands, not only those that can be prepared.
Oh well. I'm not sure whether that's extremely clever or downright insane, but I'm solving this problem by calling "Select quote_literal($1)" and "select quote_id($1)", and then using the results.
Create your own plpgsql function and call it.
