Could you perhaps in the documentation elaborate a bit more on the
difference between "Current User" and "Authenticated User"? IMHO a
couple of words on how exactly they differ would be very helpful, as
they show the same user in many cases.

Although a bit redundant, I'd argue that "SSL Compression" is better
than just "Compression".

Other than that, it looks much better now:

$ /usr/local/postgres-dev/bin/psql -x "\
    host=server.uni-muenster.de
    hostaddr=192.168.178.27
    user=jim dbname=db
    port=54322
    sslmode=verify-full
    sslrootcert=server-certificates/server.crt
    sslcert=jim-certificates/jim.crt
    sslkey=jim-certificates/jim.key"

psql (18devel)
SSL connection (protocol: TLSv1.3, cipher: TLS_AES_256_GCM_SHA384,
compression: off, ALPN: postgresql)
Type "help" for help.
