 What do you think about it ? Would it be hard to implement ? Is it
worth the effort
I believe the CREATE DATABASE was because of the way postgresql creates a database. I thought it just copied the template database (but are not completely sure).


You are correct. This is why the database used as a template can't have anyone connected to it; if somebody was, we can't get a consistent filesystem-level copy of the database.
