Comment (by toshio):

 I wrote an "RFC" about creating databases a long time ago but I don't
 think any of the app developers follow it even though they thought it was
 sensible. :-)

 * We'll use a database superuser to create a db and thus own it
 * The db superuser will create the schema for the db
 * The db supervisor will grant the necessary permissions to select,
 insert, and update to a db user $DBNAMEapp which will be used for the web
 application's day-to-day operation.  The password for this must
 necessarily be added to a config file where the web app runs
 * Additional db accounts can be created that target the specific
 permissions that are needed by pieces of the system (for instance, if a
 cron job needs to add to tables that the web app would never write to)
 * Schema updates should *not* be possible by the $DBNAMEapp account
