You can do this by using a script. I mean whenever you are creating a new version of the database. you can do that by running a script that creates a database and then stores the name of that database in an environmental variable . Now you can run psql by connecting to a database through that variable.
I think I understand the gist of your proposal, but psql was just one client example. In principle, I'd want the same alias to be exposed to psql, perl DBI, odbc, jdbc, etc. I really think this should be done in the database itself to ensure consistency.
