I don't have Tom's wonderfully articulate way of saying things, so
I'll say it my way:
If you want to do this, you already can already write a query that has
the same effect. But supporting the syntax directly to execute a
statement with an undefinable outcome is a pretty bad idea, and worse
than that, there's a ton of useful things that we *do* want that would
be a much higher priority for work than this. If you support Postgres,
prioritise, please.
