How does that help when passing parameter values?  \bind is here to be
able to pass down parameter values to queries that are prepared, so we
cannot bypass it as the parameter values need to be passed to the
\bind meta-command itself.

Perhaps an \extended command that behaves outside a pipeline makes
sense to force the use of queries without parameters to use the
extended mode, but I cannot get much excited about the concept knowing
all the meta-commands we have now (not talking about the pipeline
part, which is different, as we can treat queries in batches).
