I can't speak to other distributions, but on Ubuntu pg_createcluster allows
a -- followed by initdb options. So at least on Ubuntu any additional
options will indeed be available to everybody. I would hope that other
distributions have the same capability.
I for one would like to be able to tell initdb (pg_createcluster) what to
put in the first column of pb_hba.conf in the same way I can already use
--auth{,-host,-local}= to set the auth-method column. Ideally, for simple
situations (think testing scripts and the like, rather than long-term
installations) the pg_hba.conf could be created by initdb and not changed
after that.
