Why? listen/notify over SSL for example unless that's been fixed in the JDBC driver recently. And I'm sure there are other things in libpq that would be nice to have. As mainly a Perl dude which uses libpq via DBD::Pg I find it odd that the Java people doesn't do the same instead of reimplementing everything.
