I don't have the time now to review the impact, but this might make interpreting the log filename difficult or impossible, effectively corrupting pg_logdir_ls.
So if you want to use that, you use a format that it can cope with.
"you" is the backend, which should be able to interpret what it wrote.
I don't see a problem.
Yes, you don't see a problem if the logfile can't be displayed on the client, I know that. My primary intention for contributing *any* logfile related stuff was to make it available through admin interfaces, and this goal seems to get obstructed in any possible way.
Anybody volunteering to fix the pg_logdir_ls code at http://cvs.pgadmin.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/pgadmin-tools/support/misc.c?rev=HEAD which should have been in the backend right from the start?
What about misbehaving size rotation if the filename isn't unique? And what's a non human readable name.epoch pattern default good for?
