Your POC is totally broken. Just to point out two problems: (i) semicolon (;)
is a valid character for any option in the connection string and (ii) you
didn't think about PQsetdb[Login](), PQconnectdbParams() and
PQconnectStartParams(). If you want to pursue this idea, you should think a
way to support same option multiple times (one idea is host1, host2, etc).

Isn't it easier to add support on your application or polling software?
