I disagree that this can be a separate patch. Adding an option to not allow certain GUCs from being modified through this mechanism should be trivial. Then, *after* we have such utility that will allow users to fix a bad situation, we can consider relaxing those restrictions to allow more values to be set. I still contend that there will be some GUCs that simply don't make any sense to have in the auto-conf area of PGDATA. Thanks, Stephen
