Yes, but wouldn't that still require a generic refactoring of GUCs?
I'm not saying that would be a bad thing, but that's a big task in
itself.

But if I think about it in the general context of this thread (adding
extension options to pg_hba, ignoring the part that I tried to
implement it with GUCs in the current patch), that can be related.

Thanks for the clarification, I'll look into it in more detail.
