Hello,

Thanks Rich, I second the request for a code review.

I felt I'd add that this is a 1500-line pure-Python PostgreSQL client
module that I inherited after Barry Pederson. After I realized how
execute() is implemented, I have my worries and I'd rather not risk
making my users vulnerable.

I'd be really grateful if somebody who knows a bit of Python and the
guts of PostgreSQL could speak up on this one.

Cheers,
d33tah
