Re: why postgres? SQLite is the way to go!

While my first reaction was, "*Groan*, WhyTF do I need to run a DB server on my PC just to have a good desktop experience", I think this is a good decision. Modern systems will not be loaded excessively by a Postgres server running in the background, and the payoff would be *much* more than worth it.

But I do wish it could all be independent of the actual database used. Or at least give a choice between 2-3 popular databases. Maybe eventually, closer to productization, when such pragmatic issues are more important.
