As an adhoc solution on 9.2, you can do something like this:
1. Create a function that extracts all from pg_stat_replication:
create or replace function pg_stat_repl() returns setof pg_catalog.pg_stat_replication as $$begin return query(select * from pg_catalog.pg_stat_replication); end$$ language plpgsql security definer;
2. Create a view that uses this function to get data in it:
create view public.pg_stat_repl as select * from pg_stat_repl();
3. Grant select on this view to your unprivileged user, sat 'common_user' :
After this, you can do a select on this view to get the required information. You can do this for other pg_catalog functions as well. Reference - https://github.com/xzilla/secure_check_postgres/blob/master/sql/pg_stat_activity.sqlgrant select on public.pg_stat_repl to common_user;

Stephen,
Thanks for the information. We are currently running 9.2 instance
which we are using streaming replication for DR. I do not see an
upgrade anytime in the near future to 9.4 or later due to specfic
requirements for our application.
Will your modifications be backported to 9.2?
TIA,
Jesse
