The v9 patch set posted at [1] grants execution on
pg_get_raw_wal_record() to the pg_monitor role.
pg_read_all_data may not be the right choice, but pg_read_server_files
is as these functions do read the WAL files on the server. If okay,
I'm happy to grant execution on pg_get_raw_wal_record() to the
pg_read_server_files role.
Thoughts?
