It's me again, trying to find a solution to the most common mistakes I make.  This time 
it's accidental shadowing of variables, especially input variables.  I've wasted several 
hours banging my head against the wall while shouting "HOW CAN THIS VARIABLE ALWAYS 
BE NULL?".  I can't believe I'm the only one.  To give you a rough idea on how it 
works:

I like this, but think that the option should be just called plpgsql.warnings 
or plpgsql.warn_on and accept a list of warnings to enable.

Hmm.  How about:

plpgsql.warnings = 'all' # enable all warnings, defauls to the empty list, i.e. no warnings plpgsql.warnings = 'shadow, unused' # enable just "shadow" and "unused" warnings
  plpgsql.warnings_as_errors = on # defaults to off?

This interface is a lot more flexible and should address Jim's concerns as well.
