Because I'm delivering reports to dozens of people who have windows, no
psql client, and just want to go to a web page, click a button, and get
their report (or was that a banana?)

I guess I could give them an account on the reporting server and a copy
of pgadmin or something, but most of them are happier with a web page
and a set of buttons.
