Clearly since Pavel has another implementation of the same concept,
there is some interest in this feature. :)

I think Filip's approach of setting pg_database.datallowconn='false'
is pretty clever to avoid the synchronization problem. But it's also a
good idea to expose this functionality via DROP DATABASE in SQL, like
Pavel's patch, not just the 'dropdb' binary.

If this is to be accepted into PostgreSQL core, I think the two
approaches should be combined on the server side.
