I think you want the normal server-side error logging continuing to work.
I was thinking we could get around that by doing elog(LOG), but I guess that doesn't quite work either since we don't know what client_min_messages is.

It would sure be nice if we could find a solution that's a bit conceptually cleaner, even if it basically works the same way as what you've done here. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
