I'm wondering if you are thinking that you can use Postgres as a Mysql
storage engine? While Mysql does has pluggable storage
engines...Postgres is not designed to be able to be used in this way
(that would be an interesting - but big and probably controversial
project to undertake).

So if you are more familiar with Mysql, why not hack Innodb?
