This seems to come up regularly. Maybe we should put it in an FAQ

very very high, possibly insurmountable. This is pretty much not an

O.k., then either:
* We install it by default and document that it is available (and how
to enable it)
* Push it out of core and let it be happy wherever Theory wants it to be
I'd be ok with installing it by default.
But the case that's a lot harder to require to be always installed is
pgcrypto, as has often been discussed in the past.
In any case, we will always want to have some loadable modules, not
least because it's a part of eating our own dog food.
