I don't see any immediate use cases for our shop, unless it is the only way to get WAL copied to our backup server through SR. Franky, I'd much rather have a WAL receiver which assembled the WAL file segments (at the "archive" level of logging) as they arrived and then fed them to our warm standby clusters. (Of course, I've never claimed to have a "typical" environment.) I would be uncomfortable with a default of "auto" for a replica to allow connections based on WAL file contents. If someone explicitly sets it to "auto", then it's up to them to understand the implications. IMO, If someone sets it to "on", they should get a highly visible failure if it can't run in that mode. -Kevin
