Why? If you want this information for all of your queries, you can always set
auto_explain.log_min_duration to 0. But if you're suggesting that we should
maintain log_statement_stats (that was not I understand from Tom's email [1]),
it's not that difficult to a change ShowBufferUsage().

But we can always count on EXPLAIN BUFFERS. Remember that some monitoring
tasks are _only_ available via DTrace.

We already use ( and ) to group things. I don't remember us using , or ; in
any output node. The suggested output is intuitive and similar to other nodes
patterns.
