No objections to this proposal, that can be useful.  No objections
with the use of 's' for the shortcut in the psql prompt.

Back to your patch, you are missing two things at quick glance:
- Documentation for the new libpq API in 0001.
- Documentation for the new SERVICE and its new %s (see section called
"Prompting" on the psql page.

So please make sure to provide these with the next version of the
patch.
