You have said this before, IIRC, but frankly your instinct is just 
wrong. It is no more useless than are parameter-less functions, and I 
use those frequently. I used a DO block for some useful testing just the 
other day.

This whole proposal strikes me as premature. What we need is some 
experience from the field in using DO before we can sensibly decide how 
it should be extended. And we won't get that until 9.0 has been released 
and used for a while.
