You've got the core code magically setting that in a way that responds to extremely pg_stat_statements-specific concerns, and I am not very sure it's right even for those concerns. I am thinking that perhaps a reasonable signature for the hook function would be void post_parse_analyze (ParseState *pstate, Query *query); with the expectation that it could dig whatever it wants to know out of the ParseState (in particular the sourceText is available there, and in general this should provide everything that's known at parse time). Now, if what it wants to know about is the parameterization status of the query, things aren't ideal because most of the info is hidden in parse-callback fields that aren't of globally exposed types. However we could at least duplicate the behavior you have here, because you're only passing canonicalize = true in cases where no parse callback will be registered at all, so pg_stat_statements could equivalently test for pstate->p_paramref_hook == NULL.
