in GoodData we have this feature implemented - little bit different named -
DROP DATABASE FORCE

It is useful in complex environment with mix of pooled and not pooled
connections - and in our environment - about 2K databases per server with
lot of dropped / created databases per server / per day.

I can publish this patch, if there will be any interest.

last note: little bit related topic - we have some patches for CREATE
DATABASE - longer waiting for locking template1 - although there are some
opened issues - like any CREATE DATABASE requires checkpoint, and it is
slower in our environment.

Regards

Pavel
