While this is an interesting use of Schema, it is not, IMHO, a good way to
partition client data. Far better to have monolithic tables with a
"client_id" column and then construct *views* which are available in each
schema only to that client. Otherwise, as you've discovered, top-level
management becomes a royal pain.
I'd be happy to discuss this further on PGSQL-SQL, which is really the
appropriate mailing list.
