I finally got around to creating a ticket for this:

We definitely should make sure postgresql_psycopg2 still works as
expected. As a data point, Heroku uses "postgres" instead of
"postgresql" in their DATABASE_URL scheme. Maybe we could support all
three? :)

Hi everyone,
After starting a new project recently and failing three times to type
the name of the postgres backend correctly, I was wondering if
there's
really any value in keeping around this strange name.
From what I understand, it's a historical artifact from a time when
there was more than one postgres backend.
Could we at least make it an alias of a more simply named
"postgresql"
backend?
Thanks,
Baptiste
