My understanding is that the database is stored in the web2py app
folder only if you use SQLite (storage.sql).  I think web2py keeps
information about the models in app/database, but if you use Postgres,
MySQL, etc., they keep their own copy of the database somewhere else.
Or does web2py instruct Postgres to store the particular database in
its own app directory?   It would be nice that way.
