can the commands createuser and destroyuser be renamed to
pg_createuser and pg_destroyuser (as pg_dump) adding soft links to
preserve backwards compatibility (declaring previous commands
deprecated) ?
the same can be done for createdb and destroydb ...
I think is a much more nice namespace for Postgres wich is
important when you have thousands of commands in this times.
