I tend to think that the functionality to give comments to databases
should either be redone to work right (for example by storing the comment
in a global table (but think about the encoding problems)) or be ripped
out.  Right now the feature to give a comment to a database you presumably
already know (since you connected to it) does not seem to justify the
confusion it causes.
