+ * proposed new value of the variable (or with NULL, if an \unset is being
+ * attempted). If it returns false, the assignment doesn't occur --- it
+ * should print an error message with pg_log_error() to tell the user why.
+ *
+ * When an assign hook function is installed with SetVariableHooks(), it is
+ * called with the variable's current value (or with NULL, if it wasn't set
+ * yet). But its return value is ignored in this case. The hook should be

+ * by installing a substitute hook. (We can use the same substitute hook
+ * for all bool or nearly-bool variables, which is why this responsibility
+ * isn't part of the assign hook.)
+ *
+ * The substitute hook is called before any attempted assignment, and before
+ * the assign hook if any, passing the proposed new value of the variable as a
+ * malloc'd string (or NULL, if an \unset is being attempted). It can return
+ * the same value, or a different malloc'd string, or modify the string
+ * in-place. It should free the passed-in value if it's not returning it.
+ * The substitute hook generally should not complain about erroneous values;
+ * that's a job for the assign hook.
+ *
+ * When a substitute hook is installed with SetVariableHooks(), it is applied
+ * to the variable's current value (typically NULL, if it wasn't set yet).
+ * That also happens before applying the assign hook.
