Currently we TRUST local users so pretty much any user can access any database
from the shell.
When PHP or Perl(DBI) accesses the postgres database, can they simply specify
any userid and database set as a local user would, or are they restricted to the
"host sameuser 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 password" setting in pg_hba.conf
