That is, if you have (say) a couple hundred databases, and you only want warm-backup on one of them, you can't do it (except using other solutions like Slony).  Is that right?

stuff to particular databases ...  Would that work?  Of course, it would
have to ensure that global objects are also recovered, but we could
simply ignore commands for other databases.
