I have a session pool, where all connections to the database are

invoke either SET ROLE or SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION and switch to

reserve a connection per user, and we can still use the database
access restrictions.
But you have to ensure that your session pool is smaller than
max_connections, since this will eat up superuser_reserved_connections and
would make administrator intervention impossible under certain
circumstances.
And why do you need to hack pg_stat_activity, isn't it possible to plug
your own view in?
