this would be done from psql? if so, here's a query i have: are there any plans
to seperate the admin functions out of psql and into another seperate tool? 

i have a queasyness with general users having access to a tool that can
do admin takss (even if they supposedly don't have a superuser account).

it also seems much cleaner to have admin in one tool and data interaction in
another.

am i off track here?
