Right.

It is added by commit 664d7575 and I agree that calling the function
without argument doesn't reset the query_timer_restart as intended.
A nitpick on the patch - how about honoring the passed-in parameter
with something like $self->{query_timer_restart} = 1 if !defined
$self->{query_timer_restart}; instead of just setting it to 1 (a value
other than undef) $self->{query_timer_restart} = 1;?
