Sorry, I mean whatever structure it is that lets you go into pgAdmin,
select a database, go to Properties, and hit the Variables tab.  In
there you can set a bunch of per-database variables like
add_missing_from, search_path, etc.

I think these are just stored in pg_database.datconfig, no?

So what I would be proposing is adding that column to pg_attribute and
pg_class, I guess.  But now that I put it that way it seems like that
would be a burden on some pretty key tables.  Maybe it's not a very
good idea then.
