Why ? Better user management and policy delegations would be important
postgresql to succeed in enterprise environments. Maybe one should
start distinguishing logins from users like Sybase does. Logins are global
to all databases, and you can create a user for a given database and assign
it to a login. It would also be nice to be able to assign users to
groups(which in turn define access rights within the database).
