something like "Don't use passwords here, put them in pgpass files
instead". Besides, #2 would be the case even if you defined the servers
in a separate table.

Copy 'n' paste is your friend :-). But yes, that could be an issue. Not
sure if it's worth the hassle of a whole extra UI for maintaining server
definitions though - I'd guess not to be honest.
