Thanks this is what I needed (to deliver a statement and an example implementation, anyway I'm not convinced that this is the way to go).
I would send the close immediately after query to properly close connection also on non-master and get according state instead of timeout and included the plain authentication (thought often it might be ok to go completely without auth and plain auth does at least add something to no-auth and using ident for auth would be quite huge overhead, but this checks the server a bit more).
Also of course in the fromtend one should only forward to the backend if exactly one server is available, to make it a bit safe for work..
