Could postgres offer at least a read-only view of the data in the interim?
Ordering could be controlled by line number.
You can get the contents as a single text field like this:
| select pg_read_file|('pg_hba.conf', 0, 50*1024);
Writing a plperl function that would strip comments and blank lines and
return the rest as a numbered set of lines would be fairly trivial.
