I believe so some features - like advanced formatting will be accepted sometime. Macros are little bit different story - it is relative difficult implement them in current psql, because code is complex - there are unclean and unreadable support of readline and interactive mode. I had a idea of noninteractive console, that can support macros - but there are lot of issues still. I would to work on some better integration between client and server inlined procedures, and on simpler using psql from bash. Implementing own full macro language is not necessary. Probably better way is enable extending console statements with possibility to call external scripts.
