I'm wondering if you are thinking that you can use Postgres as a Mysql 
storage engine? While Mysql does has pluggable storage 
engines...Postgres is not designed to be able to be used in this way 
(that would be an interesting - but big and probably controversial 
project to undertake).

So if you are more familiar with Mysql, why not hack Innodb?
