Certainly one can disable the setup.pl and use other means (command line)
to upgrade your db's. I suppose we could add a global configuration
variable to disable listing of db's, but to be honest, if that's a
concern, I would suggest disabling the setup.pl anyway since it requires db
superuser access to run.
Again this is just the setup utility, not the main app and it only works
once you can log in as superuser.
It can invite trolling on a site that might be visible to the Internet.

Again this isn't a user-visible change so much as an admin-visible change.
Note that in 1.2 (and SQL-Ledger) when creating a database it would list
existing db's at the top of the screen.
