Good point.
There's also the fact that people will probably start using one big
database divided into per-user schemas as soon as schema facilities
are available. So getting fancy with pg_hba controls at this point
may well prove to be like building a better buggy whip; good in its
own context but rendered irrelevant by events.
I agree with Bruce that group-level access controls in pg_hba seem
like a sufficient answer at this point. If it turns out not, we
can always improve further in future releases.
