I wonder why don't we deprecate -W? I occasionally find it useful for situations where I have a .pgpass entry which would normally cover a database, but I have temporarily changed the password to prevent conflicting usage during maintenance or testing. (For example, while "borrowing" a machine which is normally part of the production load for a series of benchmarks under the beta release.) There would be other ways to deal with it if this were gone, but it is convenient. -Kevin
