Why's that?  I'm not aware of any project policy that prohibits such
enhancements to pgbench.  It might take some effort to gather consensus on
a proposal like this, but IMHO that doesn't mean we shouldn't try.  If the
prevailing wisdom is that we shouldn't add more built-in scripts because
there is an existing way to provide custom ones, then it's not clear that
we should proceed with $SUBJECT, anyway.
