Something else which has come up but is related is the ability to
support a "pam_tally"-like function in PG.  Basically, the ability to
lock users out if they've had too many failed login attempts.  I wonder
if we could add this hook (or maybe have more than one if necessary) in
a way to support a contrib module for that.
Thanks,
