I agree.
Greg, I think any design that mixes HTTP and the Postgres protocol on
the wire is probably doomed, because then we all get to be forever
vigilant against cross-protocol attacks. I have many, many, more
issues with the design as presented, but IMNSHO the core feature is a
nonstarter, so it doesn't make much sense to get into those details.
It seems to me that there's nothing wrong with running a separate
service that provides that information, which can then be tailored to
whatever security requirements (or not) are required.
