Agreed. Additionally I also agree with Stefan that the price of a initdb
during beta isn't that high these days.

Other things I'd like to change in that case:

* rename pg_replication_slots.xmin to something else. After the
  replication slot patch went in, in another patch's review you/Tom
  objected that xmin isn't the best name. The only problem being that I
  still don't have a better idea than my original 'data_xmin' which
  Robert disliked.

* Standardize on either slot_name for the replication slot's
  name. Currently some functions have a parameter named 'slotname' but
  all columnnames (from SRFs) are slot_name. That's not really bad since
  the parameter names don't really mean much, but if we can we should
  fix it imo.

Greetings,

Andres Freund
