Currently, you're required to have superuser rights.

I agree 110% and am actively working to fix exactly this issue. I hope
to have a patch in the next day or so which will allow you to GRANT
rights to such a monitor user which will allow that user to see all the
contents of pg_stat_replication.
One thing which would be really great is if you have time to test with
the patch I'm working up (it's against 9.5, but this is strictly
functionality testing and should be just in in a dev/test environment,
I wouldn't suggest running 9.5 in production, of course!).
Thanks!
Stephen
