Well, correct solution is to implement tablespaces on which objects like
databases, tables and indexes can be put.
There was a long discussion on this and there was a tablespaces patch. It was
agreed that tablespace as a set of directories would be a good point to start.
I have no idea what is the status of that effort right now. You can search the
archives or I hope this kicks a fresh discussion..:-)
Please correct me if I am wrong. I am quoting from off my head.. not a trusted
source..
