It's possible there's something we want to change here, but it's far
from obvious what that thing is. Our WAL file handling is
ridiculously hard to understand, but the problem with changing it is
that there will then be two things people have to understand, and a
lot of tools that have to be revamped. It isn't clear that it's worth
going through that kind of pain for a minor improvement in clarity.
