Hi

   Features like CREATE DATABASE WITH TEMPLATE or CREATE TABLE LIKE
are very usefull but it would be great to have such a feature on the
mid-level too. I mean something CREATE SCHEMA LIKE that would copy all
the template schema relations, etc...
 What do you think about it ? Would it be hard to implement ? Is it
worth the effort
I believe the CREATE DATABASE was because of the way postgresql creates a database. I thought it just copied the template database (but are not completely sure). I also believe CREATE TABLE LIKE was mostly for temporary tables, where the query can not be sure what the table actually looks like when it is invoked.

Would it not be possible to work around the SCHEMA LIKE by just dumping the database schema and restoring it to a new schema? This seems more like a part that should be under strict user control and not automated by common queries.
