Why don't we improve the code, instead? In particular make
libpqrcv_connect() do
- snprintf(conninfo_repl, sizeof(conninfo_repl), "%s replication=true",
conninfo);
+ snprintf(conninfo_repl, sizeof(conninfo_repl), "%s database=replication
replication=true", conninfo);
I don't think it's unlikely that someone would try to enter a
replication-specific password into ~/.pgpass.
