Hi Jonathan, thanks for preparing it. Three thoughts, not sure You agree with them, but while reading this I had these reactions: I would recommend moving 'pg_plan_advice' a bit higher, as at least here we've got quite volume of users asking for it often in emergencies, but also lack of this feature also caused some not to migrate, because PG was missing it earlier. Also 64-bit MultiXactOffset is not directly called, but can be huge win for some, maybe something like "64-bit MultiXactOffset greatly reduces the risk of MultiXact member-space exhaustion: it prevents emergency anti-wraparound vacuums previously caused by highly concurrent workloads involving FKs." Perhaps also "GROUP BY ALL" could be listed as well under `Developer Experience`. -J.
