And as a result, I didn't know what template1 was for until now, and I
fear there's more to it than just this. Up until this point, I assumed
"template1" was an example database which could be copied, or something.
At least that's what a template is to me.
Okay, I've suspected there was more to "template1" for a little while now,
but I'd not gotten around to looking into it more. Still, my first
impression was it was a sample database. ;) Maybe a name like "master"
would be clearer, or maybe that means something else to someone.
