What are the current plans regarding running PG as a service? A wrapper,
or integrated code? If a wrapper, will it be put in the core, or done as
something like a contrib or pgfoundry project?

cheers

IF a wrapper, should be pgfoundry ... *but*, wouldn't integratd by
cleaner?

would a wrapper be faster/easier? maybe aim for that for 7.5, and full
integration for 7.6?

Service code is simple - Claudio already posted a wrapper, and I offered
to provide an integrated solution as I did for autovacuum. (what happened
to that btw - did it get applied?)

If not, it will be applied.
