As long as not many (!!) more people complain about the crappy replication solutions for PG, the response on the list will always be: there are solutions that are good enough.
Slony adds a 20% load on the master server just to do slave replication and model changes are a pain ... and other solutions? Sorry, but there are no other affordable clustering solutions with PG.
Despite that: it is the fastest, most robust and reliable database I've used so far.
FrontBase is REALLY good, but might not fit specific needs, I found it mostly free of problem, way better than the hazzle I had over the time with MySQL.
And for MySQL: as long as they don't change their policy and not do API changes or major changes to the behaviour of the system inside a minor version tree (so you can't get updates inside the minor version without possibly breaking stuff in your app) which happened in version 4, MySQL is not an option for me. Maybe they changed that, but I'm conservative and still don't like it ... have a long memory.
