One of the few really useful features of SQL Server that Postgres doesn’t have 
is straightforward cross-database queries.

You can reference any table in any database on the same server you’re on as 
database.schema.table.

With Postgres, it is necessary to set up a FDW connection between every 
database where you want to perform a query and the database you want to query. 
In an analytics environment where a single server might have a hundred or so 
smaller databases, this is a grossly inefficient proposition.

Is it practical to provide the SQL Server-like feature in Postgres?
