The #1 question I see on Stack Overflow has to be confusion about
pg_hba.conf, mostly from people who have no idea it exists, don't understand
how to configure it, etc.
The totally non-obvious name of the file probably has something to do
with that. It should be called 'auth.conf'.
Not convinced; since it only controls one facet of auth - it doesn't
define users, passwords, grants, etc - that'd probably be just as confusing.
Yeah this one is not making the grade. pg_hba is just that host based
auth but I think we are bikeshedding now.
