What is the 'options' string for ? Is it for specifying a userid/password ? If not, I think this is important functionality, since currently databases must provide access to user 'nobody' if that is how apache is set up (and it usually is). By being able to specify user/password, and configuring postgresql to accept these kinds of connections, security would be improved ? At the moment, it seems the only reasonable solution to using PHP/pgsql is to have PHP being or wrapped in a setuid.
