IIRC, the conclusion of our earlier debate about backend PREPARE/EXECUTE
syntax was that since it was not implementing exactly the behavior
specified for embedded SQL (and couldn't, not being an embedded
operation) it would be better to deliberately avoid using exactly the
same syntax. See thread starting at
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2002-07/msg00814.php
We can revisit that decision if you like, but you must convince us that
it was wrong, not just say "of course we should change it".
