Actually, I was talking about if someone changes the session origin
then which origin id we should send? currently, we send data only
during the commit so we take the origin id from the commit wal and
send the same. In the below example, I am inserting 2 records in a
transaction and each of them has different origin id.

begin;
select pg_replication_origin_session_setup('o1');
insert into t values(1, 'test');
select pg_replication_origin_session_reset();
select pg_replication_origin_session_setup('o2'); --> Origin ID changed
insert into t values(2, 'test');
commit;

ok
