New FAQ item:

    <H4><A href="#4.25">4.25</A>) How do I perform queries
    using multiple databases?<H4>

    <P>There is no way to query any database except the current one.
    Because PostgreSQL loads database-specific system catalogs, it is
    uncertain how a cross-database query should even behave.</P>

    <P>Of course, a client can make simultaneous connections to
    different databases and merge the information that way.</P>
