I like the general idea of a replication-only "role" or "login". Maybe
implementing that as a role w/ all the things that come along with it
being a role isn't right, but we don't want to have to reinvent all the
supported auth mechanisms (and please don't propose limiting the auth
options for the replication login!). Is there a way we can leverage the
auth mechanisms, etc, while forcing the 'replication role' to only be
able to do what a 'replication role' should do?
Thanks,
Stephen
