.. But if the connection has to be synchronous, that means that the SQL server
has to be accessible all the time.
The fact that /etc/init.d/postgresql probably starts it up nicely means that
this is less of a challenge than ensuring that GnuCash is up and running; it
would still be kind of nice to serialize the transactions, and so lead to not
needing for any server to be running at
all...
