Oh, excuse me, this was actually not the exact answer to your question. Let me
give you some more explanations:

We have many extensions istalled that use their own DB tables. Some of them
must be accessable for all of our wikis, others are wiki specific. In order not
to mix up the original MediaWiki tables with tables used by extensions, we keep
them in different schemas. We use PostgerSQL's schema mechanism to make every
wiki's db user see the correct tables to use.

Let me give you an example: We have done several text imports from external
sources. In order to guarranty proper source work and author attribution, we
maintain a DB table for source works and one for authors. Both tables are used
by all of our wikis simultanously. Therefore, we have prepended the
corresponding schema to the MW standard search_path.
