Even if you were to store the search_path as a separate field, there is no
promise that the items in it have not changed since the query was added to
pg_stat_statements. Your best bet is to schema-qualify your relations when
writing your queries. Then your pg_stat_statement output will contain the
information you want.

Note that you can use the queryid to figure out (with a little work) which
schemas were used for particular queries:

CREATE SCHEMA a; CREATE TABLE a.foo (id int);
CREATE SCHEMA b; CREATE TABLE b.foo (id int);
SET search_path = a; select * from foo;
SET search_path = b; select * from foo;
RESET search_path;
select query, queryid from pg_stat_statements where query ~ 'select \* from
foo';
       query       |       queryid
-------------------+----------------------
 select * from foo |   255924940643424438
 select * from foo | -7783557204835816030
(2 rows)

greg=# explain verbose select * from a.foo;
                       QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on a.foo  (cost=0.00..35.50 rows=2550 width=4)
   Output: id
 Query Identifier: 255924940643424438
(3 rows)

greg=# explain verbose select * from b.foo;
                       QUERY PLAN
---------------------------------------------------------
 Seq Scan on b.foo  (cost=0.00..35.50 rows=2550 width=4)
   Output: id
 Query Identifier: -7783557204835816030

Cheers,
