I'm willing to live with a "soft error" type of GUC variable for those
cases. I don't want a GUC variable that actively changes the default
tablespace; at least not unless you want to abandon the current
mechanisms for default tablespace choices entirely, and go over to
making the GUC variable be the sole arbiter. (Which would be consistent
with the way we handle selection of which schema to create in, so I'm
not necessarily against it.) I guess what I'm trying to say is I don't
want a hodgepodge design, because I think it'll be confusing and
unusable.
