Maybe so (note, the fix is not mine). I guess better stated, the
proposed would allow use of server side prepared statements with JDBC.

yes, they are. see:

There are numerous pages on the web suggesting to DISCARD ALL in
transaction mode which is incredibly wasteful in the case of prepared
statements...so much so you're better off not using them if you can
help it. With proposed, the application can simply prepare after
opening the 'connection' and not have to worry about handling the
error or scope.

That's fair. Although there was a very long standing issue where jdbc
would try to prepare 'BEGIN' in such a a way that it could not be
disabled -- that was fixed.
