Yeah, I was talking to Bruce about that this AM, and it seems like a
feature we *need* to have ... for 9.1.
I'm sufficiently concerned about the amount of flux HS/SR is in right
now that I'd like to declare it "good enough" and move towards release.
Otherwise we'll tinker with it forever and there will be no 9.0.
"Release early, release often" *is* the OSS mantra, after all. The
question now isn't "Is binary replication perfect" but "is it *good
enough* for some substantial portion of our users". And I think the
answer to the latter question is, at this point, yes.
