Yes, I notice Thomas has all of the .sgml files set up with
Local-variables settings. I think that adding a pgsql-sgml-mode
along the same lines as I just illustrated would be a much better
way of handling it.

I don't think so. If there were, it'd have the same kinds of security
risks as Local-variables has (visit someone else's file, auto-execute
someone else's code ... not cool).
