With my State Machine proposal, we could only apply max_standby_delay if in sync state, and cancel query unconditionally otherwise. > The alternative is this: after being disconnected for 15 minutes we > reconnect.

And it could be the cause of another GUC, do we want to give priority to catching-up to get back in sync, or to running queries. That would affect to when we apply max_standby_delay, and when set to prefer running queries it'd apply in any state as soon as we accept connections.
