Agreed. The question is -- how far should we change pg_basebackup to "get right"? I think it's not difficult to change it so that it backs up the control file at the end. But eliminating the need for full_page_writes=on seems not easy. No? So I'm not inclined to do that in at least first commit. Otherwise, I'm afraid the patch would become huge.
