Replication would be nice, or some other form of clustering so the load can
be easily split among multiple PostGres servers. My personal pet peeves
are the difficulty of the backup/restore process (well, it's not really
difficult, it just takes a while) and the 8k query limit. Also, the
ability to restrict CREATE [ TABLE | INDEX | SEQUENCE ...] would be nice.
