TODO list

* User who can create databases can modify pg_database table

Not anymore.

* Interlock to prevent DROP DATABASE on a database with running backends

I think Tom wanted this listed as an achievement, because it's already
done.

* Better interface for adding to pg_group

Done.

* Allow array on int8[]

Done. (Credit to Thomas, thought, he just forgot to apply the patch.)

* Make Absolutetime/Relativetime int4 because time_t can be int8 on some
ports

Does this mean the abstime/reltime types or all of them?  I thought the
former were deprecated anyway.

* Permissions on indexes, prevent them?

Done (prevented)

* Make postgres user have a password by default

Done. (--pwprompt option, enter it blind twice, echo ALTER USER |
postgres; probably as secure as it gets)

* Update table SET table.value = 3 fails(SQL standard says this is OK)

Not the standard I'm looking at. Someone please enlighten me.
        <update statement: searched> ::=          UPDATE <table name>            SET <set clause list>              [
