Re: Killing the backend to cancel a long waiting query

I can implement it as C functions, I think.
Would be nice to have something like:

Test=# select pg_list_backends();
pid | conn_id | user | database | time | host | status
-------+----------+----------+-----------+------+---------------+--------
4724 | 35445134 | marcelo | test | 0:34 | 192.168.2.212 | select
18737 | 15412337 | postgres | template1 | 0:00 | 192.168.1.65 | idle
18693 | 11448964 | postgres | test | 0:00 | 127.0.0.1 | idle
(3 rows)

Test=# select pg_stopquery_pid(4724);
pg_stopquery_pid
------------------
0

Is it worth?
