Thank you for the explain! I understood the use case of this patch.
This feature would be helpful for troubleshooting.
Since we set xact_is_sampled only when transaction starts and see it
during transaction we cannot disable logging during transaction and
vice versa. I can imagine the use case where user wants to disable
logging during transaction. So it might be better to also check if
log_xact_sample_rate > 0 in check_log_duration().
