My "bikeshedding" would be to ensure that the sample pg_hba.conf includes some kind of reference comment indicating where to look in the documentation for more about this. Section numbers aren't stable enough; section title is probably apropos. The most relevant docs seem to be "Preparing the Master for Standby Servers" http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/warm-standby.html#PREPARING-MASTER-FOR-STANDBY or Streaming Replication Authentication http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/warm-standby.html#STREAMING-REPLICATION-AUTHENTICATION -- When confronted by a difficult problem, solve it by reducing it to the question, "How would the Lone Ranger handle this?"
