Description
Sometimes it is very practical to define a "start SQL command" for the DB connection, which each connection will execute immediately after connection is established.
This can be, for example:
- setting up a search path to schemas (so that existing SQL queries from the project in the IDE, that count on this search path, work at all).
- or it can be a special internal "session login" (function call) to the DB, so that other existing plPgSQL functions will work correctly, etc.
- etc...

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named in the issue. Start by locating the PostgreSQL connection setup and existing connection configuration, then determine where a configurable command could run immediately after each connection is established. Done means users can provide a start SQL command and it executes for every new connection.
