Yes, useful for custom GUCs, even if I doubt that many of them mix
character casing these days.

I was also looking at reducing the scope of the "name" variable in
this path, but that makes IMO the code a bit more confusing with the
existing wrapper set_config_option() and set_config_option_ext(),
while the handle is only used within fmgrs.

Applied the previous patch after looking at it again.
