Thanks for updating the patches!

Regarding 0001 patch, I have one nitpicking comment;

-        result = standard_planner(parse, cursorOptions, boundParams);
+        result = standard_planner(parse, query_text, cursorOptions, boundParams);

-standard_planner(Query *parse, int cursorOptions, ParamListInfo boundParams)
+standard_planner(Query *parse, const char *querytext, int cursorOptions,
+                 ParamListInfo boundParams)

-pg_plan_query(Query *querytree, int cursorOptions, ParamListInfo boundParams)
+pg_plan_query(Query *querytree, const char *query_text, int cursorOptions,
+              ParamListInfo boundParams)

The patch uses "query_text" and "querytext" as the name of newly-added
argument. They should be unified? IMO "query_string" looks better name
because it's used in other functions like pg_analyze_and_rewrite(),
pg_parse_query() for the sake of consistency. Thought?
