Added to TODO. But I doubt this can easily be implemented.

No. ECPG does not interpret any command. They are just fed into the backend.

After an insert the backend returns the number of records inserted, but does
it also return the OID or whatever? I'm not sure but since an insert could
add more than one tuple I doubt that.
