Comment (by robe):

 thinking further out loud, might be better to just have one history schema
 (like there is only one pgtoast schema) and prefix the table name with the
 original schema -- since creating more schemas may be equally confusing.

 somthing like schema --> postgis_history

 and tables would be postgis_history.public_mytable_history

 the other side benefit of having a single history schema is I can exclude
 it from backup since history can get very big very faast.  I may only want
 to backup the history once a week or month excluding from my regular
 backup and that's trivial if its all isolated in a single schema.

 Though I guess you'd have to deal with people moving their tables to
 different schemas and renaming them.  Then again maybe I should just shut
 up.
