Do we have a TODO for allowing users to

Together with PITR, this might make sense?
Another idea:
Has anyone tried to put the WAL segment directory on a cluster 
filesystem and use that for cold (perhaps even hot) failover?
The archive script could apply completed wal segments to the backup 
node. If the primary node fails, the last (partial) segment is applied 
as well and the backup node is activated.
