We've talked about this before, and rejected it. The reason is that it
breaks when you have more than one version installed on the same system.
We've considered adding a checkbox (off by default) to the installation
that would set it, though, but the demand just hasn't been there yet ;-)
Does it not help to just use the "Command Prompt" shortcut on the
PostgreSQL menu in the start menu?
