Do we need to modify the database used @cball? Or will the different schema suffice?

The only potential downside I can think of here is if someone creates a postgres user that is not a super user or does not have
create schema
permissions.We either need to require that the postgres user has the right permissions, or we should take
DATABASE_URL
wholesale if defined.I'm leaning towards requiring a postgres user with the right permissions and keeping the auto generated schema. what do you think?

Yeah I'm there with you on requiring the user with the right permissions vs using the existing dev database which might lead to test issues.
Should we document how to do this, or simply mention that the postgres user needs x permissions or is a super user?

Cool.
We should probably add to the docs (probably in getting started). Something like "When setting up postgres locally, we recommend creating a superuser to keep things easy, but if you'd like to change it just ensure the user has create schema permission."
