I was wondering if there was some way to defer the user check till a

that's a good idea, but it may help reduce the impact of the change, and
thus chances that it'd be rejected.
Well It can, but it would mean one more lock on procarray and I didn't
want that and like I said, MyDatabaseId is read from flatfile too.
Auth flatfile is used only on two other places which I also patched so I
don't see this as a problem (it's used in hba.c to check role membership
and in crypt.c for password verification)
