This seems even more useful with -X fetch to me, as with fetch we are sure

are not immediately receiving the WAL. So, I'd propose to use it whenever -X
is specified, regardless of which method is specified.

Yes. Users are specifically requesting wal using -X, so making sure that
actually happens by default would work.
