I know its possible to use a trigger. We did that on a test
environment but we decided not to do that anymore. the trigger is
not trivial. What happens if there is a prelude update and the schema
changes? you have to modify your trigger as well. And thats not always
easy since system administrators are not always programmers :) 

Luckily i dont have so much events. I tried those triggers because i
don't like using preludedb-admin. The reason for this is, the database
password is shown in plain text in the system process table.
