Yup, it should be. I got distracted while filling out the form and typed
in the wrong thing on returning.

Sounds good to me.
I'd also like to see support for UNIX domain sockets credential passing
authentication for local database connections sometime, but I haven't had
a chance to hack on that at all. In the mean time, I've been forcing
local connections to use TCP/IP via PGHOST=localhost and using identd,
disabling the trust setting, but that's not really ideal.
