My problem with this whole idea is that it seems to be very 
MySQL-specific. Why aren't we providing help for users migrating from 
Oracle, Sybase, Informix, Ingres, DB2, SQLServer and Firebird, to name 
but a few? And if we turn all those on by default, we'll have a pretty 
horrible banner when starting psql.
