Currently the documentation for the default role "pg_signal_backend" states,

terminate)",
giving the impression other signals (e.g. SIGHUP) can be sent too, which is
currently not the case.
Attached patch clarifies this, adds a descriptive paragraph (similar to what
the other default roles have) and a link to the "Server Signaling Functions"
section.
Pushed with minor tweaking.
Thanks!
(Note: patches are less likely to fall through the cracks if you
add them to the commitfest page.)
Yup, though I was intending to add that one together with a couple of
related minor doc patches to the next CF.
