Should we consider adding "peer" as an alias for "ident" already in
9.1 (and change the default pg_hba.conf template), and then deprecate
ident for 9.2 and remove it in 9.3 or something? By adding the alias
now (yes, I know it's not in the last CF :P), we can move what's going
to be a long process up one release...
