That's a client variable, and it works for libpq-based clients that
don't do something funny with them (none of them ought to, but one
can't guarantee others' programs). So you're not modifying for other
clients, AFAIK, just for you. (If that's what you want, well, good,
but it's important to know what it does.)
The list for 8.1 is in the docs:
