For example, I can imagine a function that would create (and then execute) a few different variations on a query – with each variation using different parameters.

Right now, each query variation would require a distinct EXECUTE USING statement that explicitly notes the parameters being passed in.

However, if there was some way to pass the parameters as an array (or other complex variable, perhaps a record), then EXECUTE using becomes a much more general-purpose tool, further encouraging its use.

While this treads near the “dangerous waters” territory of SQL queries and parameters being passed around between functions, I think that everything that can be done to encourage safe avodiance of SQL injection (which EXECUTE functionality is oh-so-vulnerable to) as an improvement.

Thanks!
