No, there is no assumption: security should be set up independent of
Bucardo. All Bucardo needs to do is be able to reach all the databases
through a normal DBD::Pg connection. This can be with SSL, using a
tunnel, or any other means. It's also a good practice to exclude
everyone via pg_hba.conf and make specific permissions for the servers
and users that need to reac it.
