I'm using all sort of building blocks, I recall functions, views, custom types, triggers, publications on per-table basis. In most cases I don't allow for my schemas to divert, but there had been situations like developing next generation of the system where for reasons out of my memory I had to wait till job was done and then merge schemas. Probably this could have been avoided but in the same time I was not there when decisions was made :)
What's your use-case on "merging schemas"? Does it not merge data? Is it like you have a database with a table with columns "foo", and "bar", and then another database with a table with columns "bar", and "baz" and you want one of the database to end up with columns "foo", "bar", and "baz" without moving any of the actual data?
