All right -- I'll submit a revised patch with documentation adjustments. "Basic Statements" needs to be revised, in particular the section, "Executing a Command With No Result". I'm inclined to remove that section completely, and rename the next section from "Executing a Query with a Single-row Result" to simply, "Executing a Query" (or perhaps "Non-Dynamic Query"). I'd like to remove documentation and usage of PERFORM except for a note mentioning the old syntax...this would replace the current note that existentially questions the necessity of PERFORM in the first place.
