Hi,
The problem is the current_query (in pg_stat_activity) contains bind variables and I can't just take it to do the explain (and, of course I don't know the values of the bind variables).
On a related issue, how can I see the actual sql statement when the current_query shows "<unnamed portal x>".
pg_cursors is only accessible within the same transaction and as a DBA we want to see that cursor of any active transactions.

I am not familiar with the Oracle tools, but you should note that the "EXPLAIN ANALYZE" does actually do the transaction, so if you doing an update / insert / delete you may want to wrap it in an explicit transaction and then roll it back.
