Is hiding schema information a good thing? Do people think that the concept of "secure by default" should apply to schema information inside of the database? Should information hiding be done in psql(1) or should this be managed by the backend and all logic kept out of psql(1)? For sure, the advantage of having it managed in the backend is that *all* clients (psql, pgadmin, phpPgAdmin, etc.) would pick up the schema structure hiding.
Anywhere else but the backend is pointless, IMNSHO. You might be interested in my recent posting about zero knowledge users here:
