Thanks, looks fine for me.

It seems to me that everything is covered. We are taking about
creation and dropping of slots here, where standby snapshots can be
created and SQL queries can be run when doing a tablesync meaning that
FPWs could be taken in the context of the WAL sender. Blocking all
commands would be surely safer I agree, but I see no reason to block
things more than necessary.
