For more usefulness, we'd need to keep databases more separate from each other than we do now. Databases would need to have their own transaction counters, for example.

Hmm, why?  Perhaps you are right but I don't see the reason.

If each database was stand-alone, you would need only one base backup and WAL per database to restore, instead of base backup and WAL of the database, and base backup and WAL of shared stuff. You could backup one database in cluster, restore it somewhere else, and later copy it back to the original cluster. You could back up one database at a time, and restore the whole cluster from the N per-database backups.
