I had overlooked that. It is in 7.4, at least:
database
Specifies which databases this record matches. The value all
specifies that it matches all databases. The value sameuser
specifies that the record matches if the requested database has
the same name as the requested user. The value samegroup
specifies that the requested user must a member of the group
with the same name as the requested database. Otherwise, this is
the name of a specific PostgreSQL database. Multiple database
names can be supplied by separating them with commas. A file
containing database names can be specified by preceding the file
name with @. The file must be in the same directory as
pg_hba.conf.
