Well thats not exactly the same as was originally suggested, and in fact
does little more than to force events to be grouped by what could easily
be minor differences in phrasing:

PostgreSQL Administration for Beginners (3 events)
PostgreSQL Administration 101 (5 events)
Getting started with PostgreSQL (2 events)
Beginning PostgreSQL (4 events).

If we want to do something like that it needs to be done properly by
(for example) pre-defining some set categories to ensure we list things
appropriately.
