Hi Diego,
I think a better solution would be to expose the existing
passwordFromFile() code through a new public libpq API, perhaps
PQpassfileLookup().
Then pgcli could look up the password using the original host and port,
and connect to the local tunnel port with that password. This would avoid
both a new connection parameter and a separate .pgpass parser in each
client.
I would be happy to review such a patch. I think this would be a useful
addition to PostgreSQL.
Best regards,
Denis Smirnov
