to romke: please remove this option. you are duplicating initdb script.
init option for postgresql.init script was introduced for simple scenarios.
if you need other encoding, then just use initdb script.

to others...

ok. so we are at the same point again as few months ago.

in few weeks next person will introduce other options for
"service postgresql init" duplicating functionality of initdb script.

qboosh, as you can see it really misleads people. let's remove
init part of postgresql.init script. it really doesn't make sense
to have it.
