I've had an interesting incident earlier this week where seeing planning
time in pg_stat_statements would have been very helpful to determine the
root cause more quickly.

Essentially the situation was a statement that executed < 1ms but took more
than 250ms to plan, running often - once we found the statement (using
pg_stat_activity sampling) we were able to fix quickly by rewriting the
query and reduce system load from ~8 to ~1. Having this patch in
pg_stat_statements would have been critical to get the full picture of what
was going on earlier.

Thomas: I'm not as familiar with planner internals as you are, but happy to
try and contribute here. Would it be useful for me to try to adjust the
patch to Tom's proposal?

Best,
Lukas
