Then one might as well argue that the pg_db_role_setting table be relocated to /etc. It's the same facility, only on a slightly different level.

We could have chosen some binary format instead. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
