AMEN.

MySQL is so prevalent because of its percieved easier barrier to entry...  
Once people start using it and it starts mangling their data without so much 
as a warning they think that all OSS databases suck hairy donkey balls. 

Personally I think that the pgsql CDR module should be out of the standard 
Asterisk install and everything done via ODBC but I'm not the one who makes 
these kinds of decisions.  :-)
