I think parameters related to a particular recovery, e.g.,
recovery_target_time, fit better into a recovery.conf that is renamed
after the recovery is complete. That was the original idea, after all.

Everything that is a permanent setting across multiple recovery
attempts, and anything related to replication, better fits elsewhere.
