I'm not sure I agree with that.  I don't agree that there's really a
legitimate use for creating a role w/ NOLOGIN and a password either, for
that matter.  A 'NOTICE' level message would be fine with me.  We have
NOTICE messages for when we create an index for a PK.  I find a message
about an entirely unexpected and unworkable configuration alot more
useful than those.
Thanks,
