Not really because it's a local solution. How do you change passwords or keep history on your standby nodes? Besides, the documentation says that postgres can't handle /etc/shadow because it runs unprivileged, only pam_ldap would work. Or am I missing something?

I have started to work some weeks ago and it just need more time to end/polish the job.

It is in my TODO list for a year as you noted and will try to implement it this summer.
