I'm not buying the argument that there are realistic use-cases where
you need a connection limit on a superuser role, either. Whatever
you're doing that might merit a connection limit should not be done
as superuser. I think this proposal boils down to asking for support
for an incredibly bad application design, and equipping every database
with an additional foot-gun in order to have that.
