This methods seems to work, but it is neither particularly fool-proof nor

Monitoring this system is hard too, since there is no easy way to detect errors
while restoring a particular wal.
what I would really like to see is to have the postmaster start up in
a special read only mode where it could auto-restore wal files placed
there by an external process but not generate any of its own. This
would be a step towards a pitr based simple replication method.
