"Need" or "want"? I'd not maintain one RPM file that contains Tomcat5,
Java and PostgreSQL -- it would be PITA, imho. But of course, that is
me.

Both (2) and (3) are doable with both custom init scripts and custom
%post operations in spec file. I have done (2) in the past. You can add
your custom SQL file either to spec file or to init script. Same is
valid for (3). Add those changes as a patch to RPM itself
