I've recently been working on a mysql to postgres migration and it's
been quite bumpy.  I'm going to set aside some time to improve some of
the import/export webtools items and wanted to know if anyone else had
come across additional annoyances that I can be on the lookout to
address.  Here are two that I'd like to specifically address.

1. Case sensitive fk integrity check
2. Data write/load order for hierarchy fk integrity (parent*Id -> *Id)


I think 1 is generally only an issue when going from a mysql (which
seems a bit more relaxed) to a stricter (postgres) database.  I'm sure
there are settings.
I think 2 can be addressed pretty well (of course not 100% fool proof)
if the output file is written in the right order.

If anyone has some more annoyances that I can keep an eye out for when
I go to work on this or any thoughts to add on these  two, I would
appreciate it.  

,Chris
