I failed to mention that I also tend to type CONTROL-C when I forget that
putty acts like an xterm, and doesn't need CONTROL-C to copy text into the
clipboard. In that case, aborting the pager, and leaving the terminal
trashed requiring me to exit psql, stty sane, and start up psql again is
really not "heeding my wishes", since what I was trying to do was copy some
text from the screen in a moment of brain-deadness.
