Always appreciated.

I quite agree with this one, however it's a bit tricky (to do properly)
with PostgreSQL 7.3 as the message will change for localised versions,
so it's difficult to reliably detect what went wrong.
When 7.4 is at a usable state we will have a better way of doing this as
it will include error codes, alternatively we could hack it by only
enumerating users for superusers, or those with select permissions on
pg_shadow.

Agreed (and added to todo).

Yes, we've seen this error before. A simple resize normally makes the
scrollbars appear. Andreas: did you get a chance to look at this at all?
Can we just switch the scrollbars on permanently? 99% of the time they
would probably be there anyway...

I was hoping we could aim to coincide with the release/beta for
PostgreSQL 7.4, but that might be a bit ambitious.
Thanks for the feedback :-)
