Yes, because it's inconsistent to offer the feature in all but two
dialogues. With option 1, the worst that will happen is the user will
get an error if they mix tx-sfe and non tx-safe ddl in the one box.
It'll be handled gracefully by pgAdmin though, so they c an easily
edit and try again. Plus we can include a short comment in the
generated SQL to explain the split; something like:

-- This statement is executed on it's own because it is not transaction safe.
CREATE DATABASE foo;
