to defaults
o Allow pg_hba.conf settings to be controlled via SQL
- This would require a new global table that is dumped to flat file for
- use by the postmaster. We do a similar thing for pg_shadow currently.
+ This would add a function to load the SQL table from
+ pg_hba.conf, and one to writes its contents to the flat file.
+ The table should have a line number that is a float so rows
+ can be inserted between existing rows, e.g. row 2.5 goes
+ between row 2 and row 3.
o Allow postgresql.conf file values to be changed via an SQL
API, perhaps using SET GLOBAL
