For most things probably not that possible. For things like:


Simple feature enhancements (preloading of libs)


How long is a piece of string? When does something stop being simple?


Fixing pl/Language bugs (and making sure they still work on 7.3)
Buffer overflow fixes


Everyone seems to agree that bugs should be fixed.


Security problems (the fact that alter user/createuser with encrypted password ' will go into a .psqlhistory file is horrendous)


you can avoid this in the create case by using createuser -P instead of psql. Or by using psql -c (although that might put stuff in your shell history ;-)
Maybe there's a good case for an alteruser counterpart to createuser.



pg_dump/pg_restore enhancements


Which ones? If it is things known to be broken being fixed that comes under the bug fix category.

cheers
