Yep.  That should work.  The only reservation I'd bring up here is that you
should be doing this as a user other than one of those two users.  Otherwise
you may lock yourself out of the DB.  I assume you'll be doing this as either
a PG superuser (e.g. postgres) or a user distinct from the two above.
