This is something which has popped up on me more than once when giving talks about storing files in PostgreSQL (last PgDay Argentina there was quite a debate about it, particularly when bringing up the bytea <-> LO comparison). The concerns the people exposed had different end goals.
One of the main concerns was the fact that all LO live in a common catalog table (pg_largeobjects).
If the LO were stored per-database, with a some alike schema as pg_largeobjects, then they could be placed on any tablespace available, and even get dumped on a normal DB dump, which makes administration much simpler.
I don't get it. They are already stored database per database. Each database has its own pg_largeobjects catalog where all Large Objects for this database are stored.
