FWIW, I would find the ability to run stuff from the prompt useful for debugging plpgsql functions. Rather than edit function def CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION ... test function you could just edit in-place and test. Of course having the ability to execute arbitrary plpgsql in .sql scripts would be handy in some cases as well, though as others pointed out there are alternatives. -- Jim C.
