What nasty corner case?  Having replication connections use superuser
reserved slots seems exactly the behavior I'd expect given that they are
running as superuser.  I agree it would be good to decouple that later,
but we already decided we are not going to try to separate replication
privilege from superuser in 9.0.

(Also, autovacuum workers are a quite separate concept since the DBA
doesn't set them up or deal with them directly.  So I'm unimpressed by
pointing to the treatment of autovacuum_max_workers as a precedent.)
