There isn't anything in the FAQ about changes to the ROLES that I've seen
though this line may be interesting:
%Allow GRANT/REVOKE permissions to be applied to all schema objects with one command
The proposed syntax is:
GRANT SELECT ON ALL TABLES IN public TO phpuser; GRANT SELECT ON NEW TABLES IN public TO phpuser;
It's marked with an % saying it's easy to implement, but isn't with a "-" so it won't be in 8.3.Will make REVOKE and GRANT commands much easier without knowing all the objects that need to be listed to use them.
Thanks

Excellent - never used it myself.

Full list, and what people are thinking about for 8.3:

Check the mailing-list archives before proposing a new feature - see
what others have thought of in the past. Then, think through what you
want and discuss it here before posting to the hackers list. If you're
not planning to make changes yourself, you'll either need to directly
persuade a developer, or gain enough support to convince one it's worth
their time.
