OK, we are taking past each other here. There are two possible patterns:
- has_image is set, not apply, meaning that the image block is used
for consistency checks.
- has_image is set, as well as apply, meaning that the block needs to
be applied at redo.
So I mean exactly the same thing as you do. The point I am trying to
raise is that it would be meaningful to put in some code paths checks
of the type (apply && !has_image) and ERROR on them. Perhaps we could
just do that in xlogreader.c though. If having those checks external
to xlogreader.c makes sense, then using separate macros is more
portable.
