I agree, very frustrating. Why do you bring it up again now?
Wny not?  We are not going to improve unless we face our faults.

Oh, and I am backlogged on email, which is why I didn't mention it a
week ago when this thread was active (which I think was your point).  :-)

Did you catch up the backlog far enough to see that Simon coded and I committed the patch to add "recovery_end_command" just before beta2? So it's in 8.4 now (http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/20090514203109.8eba2754...@cvs.postgresql.org).

I agree we could've should've handled this more promptly, and I'll take my part of the blame for that. I let the various proposed patches sit for long times before reviewing them thoroughly, partly because I was busy and partly because I didn't feel good about the proposed approaches. I think what went in in the end is pretty simple and robust, but it's a shame we had to rush to get it into beta2, after sitting on our thumbs for months.
