So, you've got a better implementation up your sleeve?

I really don't get where you're coming from on this. Frankly, your
e-mails seem gauged to be merely disruptive without any intent of
constructive input. If you're opposed to working on replication in the
core, then just say so. If you think that there's an easier way to
develop M-S replication in the core than using WAL, then please present
your solution.
