Is there actually a useful use case working in v10 and broken by your proposed patch? I can't think of any, and even if there is one it's likely no one is aware of it as the docs were not updated. Considering this could also be painted as a security issue (people generally don't connect from servers to random machines, but still ...), I'd vote for pushing this to v10. regards -- Tomas Vondra http://www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
