yeah.
Here's a patch that limits it to superuser only. We can't easily match
it to the user of the session given the way the walsender data is
returned - it doesn't contain the user information. But limiting it to
superuser only seems perfectly reasonable and in line with the
encouragement not to use the replication user for login.
Objections?
