FWIW, if we use logical_decoding_work_mem as a threshold of starting
of sending changes to a subscriber, I think there might be use cases
where the user wants to set different logical_decoding_work_mem values
to different wal senders. For example, setting a lower value to
minimize the latency of synchronous logical replication to a near-site
whereas setting a large value to minimize the amount of data sent to a
far site.
