PG generally doesn't assume that anything in the system catalogs is
sensitive.  If you don't want user A looking at user B's catalog
entries, give them separate databases, not just separate schemas.

I'm sure this is what you meant, but you need to give them separate *clusters*, right? Even with separate databases you can still get a list of the other databases and other roles in the cluster. I would actually love to be mistaken but when I looked at it a year or two ago I couldn't find a way to lock that down (without breaking a lot of tools anyway).

​Yes, both the database and role namespace is global to an individual cluster.  Its another level of trade-off; database and role names could realistically and easily be done UUID-style so knowing the labels doesn't really tell anything except a vague impression of host size.

Assuming clients don't want to see their log files...

Slight correction to that.

However, if set = on, then " you should create users as username@dbname " which makes role names specific to each database.
