Hm, I agree that the para doesn't read very well now, but I think this
could be improved further. How about something like

# DATABASE can be "all", "sameuser", "samerole", "replication", a
# database name, or a comma-separated list thereof. The "replication"
# keyword matches replication connection requests (see example below).
# The "all" keyword matches all database names, but not replication
# connections.
