I'm all in favor of a nice tutorial section in the docs.  But I
certainly don't want pgsql docs to mimick the mysql docs method of
using a tutorial method for most of the beginner information.  It's so
dang hard to find anything I want in the mysql docs because of it.
Once you're somewhat familiar with the db, having to slog through
pages of tutorial to find the bits you want is counterproductive.  The
easy-peasy entry level mentality of the mysql docs works against
experienced users.

pgsql docs, OTOH, are much easier to trawl for the info I need, using
the top down layout that's so easy to use to find what you want.
