As for van.pg, it's attractive to have this job done by code from others but 
several things made me decide against it:

 * As far as I can tell, it's not packaged for Ubuntu.  Dealing with that could 
be more trouble than rolling our own.

 * It depends on testresources, which is in universe.

 * The documentation didn't tell me what I needed to know, so I got lazy and 
just wrote my own.

 * Both django and van.pg try to create the test databases themselves, so 
there's a bit of overlap.

 * We have more flexibility to tweak our own, purpose-built code.  For 
instance, our code can create a non-disposable database if necessary.
