This is also true.

Probably a perfect (but invasive) solution will be to reclaim `postgres`
binary name as user command line entry point. So things can become
`postgres server restart`, `postgres vacuum table`, `postgres cluster
something`. If done in a pluggable manner others will be able to get under
the same umbrella.
