I just found this interesting link
http://lists.initd.org/pipermail/psycopg/2005-October/003999.html
about psycopg python interface which looks like able to make the use of
prepared statements within cursors.

That means the protocol handles it but not libpq, right?

What should we - libpq users - do? Keep trickin' or .. start pachin'? :)
