As a protection against malice, yes. I think Rod was more interested in
some protection against stupidity.
Maybe the real answer is that Slony should connect as a non-superuser
and call security definer functions for the privileged things it needs
to do.
Wouldn't that break Slony's ability to connect to older postgresql
versions and replicate?
