True. But, as has been pointed out by others, people often ask for
synchronous replication when they don't really realize what that is
or what it implies and, since they're often willing to revise their
requirements once they do, I thought it'd be nice (to the Bucardo
guys at least) to point out Bucardo as a viable replication option.
