We are actually not that far away.  If you create a group for each
database, you can grant access to just that group and add/delete users
from that group at will.  My new pg_group code will do that.

Now, as far as rewriting pg_hba.conf, that goes into an area where we
are not sure if the master connection information is in the file or in
the database.  We also get into a chicken and egg case where we have to
have the database loaded to connect to it.  I am interested to hear
where people think we should go with this.
