Erwin Moller, thanks for your opinion. That's pretty much how I was
going to do it:

1. Provide DB's CREATEDB and GRANT statements for the user account used
by the web app.

2. Suggest the pg_hba.conf changes for the sysop, and try to prohibit
anything connecting to my web app except the ID specified, and only
from the IP address of where the web app is hosted.

3. Generate a SQL script to load the default database tables.


I was going to have the web app detect it's not installed by default
and start to display a wizard-like set of screens that describe the
process of setting the application up in really user-friendly terms.
