I guess mostly for interactively playing around with pipelining from psql. But I think \getresult would be useful for testing too. This would allow us to test that we can read part of the pipeline, without sending a sync and waiting for everything. To be clear \flushrequest and \flush would be necessary to make \getresult work reliably.
