Sounds like a _REALLY_ good idea to me.
I almost wonder if Pg on Windows needs a "safe mode" where it's launched
with an alternate pg_hba.conf that trusts postmaster on 127.0.0.1,
rejects *all* other logins, and doesn't listen on any external
interfaces. People seem to lose passwords a _lot_ .
Some info in the docs on changing/deleting the Pg service account might
also not be a bad idea.
