Doesn't sound very neat.
If we add a pginformation_schema, then it'd probably contain all of the
existing information_schema... plus more. Reduplication?
I guess we could just leverage off the existing information_schema views:
i.e.
CREATE VIEW pg_information_schmema.some_view AS SELECT * FROM
information_schema.some_view (then add extra bits).
But it still doesn't sound very neat.
?
