I don't see what any of these have to do with PostgreSQL history but...

PostgreSQL doesn't allow this post-creation, though the new table dialog that's expected in the next dev cycle will allow it pre-creation.

E-R diagramming is being developed as a Summer of Code project.

What does that mean? You can view the table details graphically as part of a query plan, and we're looking at plotting data distribution histograms, but I'm not sure that either can be defined as "performance level"

You usually cannot. They will be relevant to older (or newer) versions of the server.

We have reports that you can print.

Afaics, we have all of those (and have enhanced many for 1.8).
