I do like this idea, though I don't like the pg_cmd name, because it
conflicts with pg_ctl on 4 chars before presenting a useful tab
completion on the shell.  Sadly, pg is already taken so we would need to
find an alternative.

Also I would vote for less verbose names -- pg vacuumdb, etc, and not
"pg database vacuum".
