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?"
