Subject: [GENERAL] Preventing database listing?

This seems like a simple question that would have come up, but I'm not able to
find an answer in google, PG docs, or PG mailing list archives.
How do I prevent a user from being able to list all databases in my cluster? I
want to restrict them to seeing just the databases they have connect rights to.
Thanks
Adam
