Probably just that it wasn't possible for postgres itself before.  
There is nothing in Horde that cares which db the split read/write  
setup is for. A patch for adding the appropriate postgres config would  
be great.

Sounds like a bug. Can you send a patch or at least create a ticket on  
bugs.horde.org?
