Good point.  I had figured it was probably OK given that it's
analogous to the pg_locks view (which is unrestricted AFAIR),
and that it already has some restrictions on what you can see.
I'd have no hesitation about dropping it off this list though,
since it's probably not used that much and it could also be seen
as exposing internals.
