Sure. I doubt we want to wait until a reply to the cancel request is obtained, but we could have the sigterm handler at least send it before terminating.
Why do you send SIGTERM to psql anyway?
The way the story was told to me by the user, they started psql from inside the neovim session and then cancelled it with Ctrl-C. Apparently, neovim (unlike, say, vim) sends SIGTERM to the child process in this case (whereas vim will send SIGINT).
I think there may be a bug - I am not able to reproduce it, but sometimes I can crash psql by CTRL-C too.
