By that definition, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE can all be "utility
commands".  So would a full-table-scan SELECT, if it's unfortunate
enough to run into a lot of hint-setting or HOT-pruning work.

I think possibly a more productive approach to this would be to treat
it as a session-level GUC setting, rather than hard-wiring it to affect
certain commands and not others.
