No, I think Jonathan wasn't thinking of these links when he mentioned
that second item. I do have the /pg/commitdiff/ URLs in mind, but
that's a pginfra configuration file that needs to be changed. I'll
see about changing that as well, because I've been bitten by this
problem there too.

BTW regarding Jon's second item, I was again reminded that we have
this "backend flowchart" page there,
https://www.postgresql.org/developer/backend/
I think this is a prime example of something that we could do much
better by adding one more item to our numerous collection of diagrams in
the docbook core docs.
