Having read bits and pieces of this thread, can those in favour confirm that this would be an effect of this patch? If so I fail to see the usefulness of this and indeed it would be very harmful to existing installations! All use of PostgreSQL utilities in scripts for our product always do a '-U sprint' to use a global user, this aids our internal development and makes installation notes for clients easier... Also what effect would adding significance to '@' in the context of usernames have, if any, on the current use of it as a database/host separator (in ECPG, certainly would be useful in the utilities too)?
