Hi all,

I was at a customer's office wednesday and thursday and they had an
interesting request for pgAdmin. I'm not sure it was not already discussed
here, so I prefer asking before coding.

They'll have to administrate around 150 PostgreSQL servers. They intend to use
pgAdmin, but 150 registered servers will probably be a mess in the treeview.
We don't have (AFAICT) grouping functionality, folder-like to group servers by
<insert here everyone's idea> (geographical for example: one group for all
Paris servers, another one for all servers in Marseilles, etc.).

Was this already discussed (and maybe rejected)? in fact, I see no reason not
to have this (simple) functionality (simple if we stay with one level).

Comments? Better ideas?

PS: right now, I told them to declare each group in different .reg files (they
work on windows). When they need to work on one group, they first register the
associated .reg file and then launch pgAdmin... but that's not a really good
way to do it.
