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?
