Has anyone thought about the Arc/Info coverage model? The idea would be to have a table with line geometries and attributes reflecting the left and right polygon ids.
Absolutely. Much thought has gone into this already ... even a little development ... but I'm afraid that's where it stopped. http://www.postgis.org/support/wiki/index.php?PostgisTopology

My thought is you do your edits on the line geometry table and then polygon topology is built in a separate (dependent, inherited??) table based on the line table using well defined procedures. The only function I don't see offhand that is not there is a split polygon with line. Just my thoughts.
