All the argument here is based on the premise that we should have database-level collation specifications, which AFAICS is not required nor suggested by the SQL spec.

Agreed. Are we even sure that we want per-database collations as a half-way house? Unless we can be sure that we want all the required catalog changes for the full requirement, it seems to me a rather messy way of getting to where we want to go.
