Unless I'm missing it the use of signals to trigger failover is not
documented AT ALL. So why anyone would expect such behaviour is
something of a mystery.
Well, some people do read source code. If it was more widely known, I
would hesitate more to change it, though.
Perhaps doing that would be even more important than release notes.
Agreed it should be documented.
