That sounds pretty nuts to me, because of the pg_dump use case if nothing else. I don't think it's reasonable to say "oh, if you execute this DDL on your system, it will instantaneously and automatically begin to create outbound network connections, and there's no way to turn that off." It ought to be possible to set up a configuration first and then only later turn it on. And it definitely ought to be possible, if things aren't working out, to turn it back off, too. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
