I think there is no need for this and it's the wrong place to implement it.

Why should PostgreSQL do something to work around broken application design? An application that closes its database connection just to create a new one a second later is broken.

In this particular case the thing to fix is Apache's legacy architecture. Prefork based web servers are really something from the last decade.

Consider Lighttpd, Litespeed or Zeus and connect a fixed amount of PHP/Perl/Python/Ruby/Lua workers via FCGI. Each worker keeps a persistent connection to PG and load is distributed over the workers.
