We're having a growing zoo of daemons that can be regarded as tightly
integrated server add-on processes (slony, autovac, pgAgent), and it
would be really nice (say: win32 users are used to it, thus requiring
it) to have a single point of control.
Maybe a super daemon (in win32 probably pg_ctl), controlling
postmaster and all those helper processes (accessible through pgsql
functions, of course) would be the solition. This keeps the kernel
clean, separates backend shmem from helper processes and enables
control over all processes.
And this will be ready when? I thought we were discussing what could be
done regarding AVitB between now and feature freeze for 8.1 in about 2
weeks. This surely doesn't come into that category.
