The current code implements what I suggested in that note, viz:
default permissions for new databases areowner = all rights (ie, create schema and create temp)public = create temp
rightonly
but template1 and template0 are set toowner (postgres user) = all rightspublic = no rights
by initdb.
Also, the "public" schema within template1 is empty but writable by
public. This is annoying, but at least it's easy to fix if you
mess up --- you can DROP SCHEMA public CASCADE and then recreate
the schema. (Or not, if you don't want to.)
