I can see the lack of normalization for the LSN as a bug, but the
option patterns in a WITH clause is IMO more debatable. I think that
we should collect more data from the field before setting down on a
behavior we may regret. I can partially get behind a normalization of
the timeout, but I am less clear about the MODE and NO_THROW, as it
could be useful to split them.

In terms of v19, it seems to me that just ignoring the LSN part is
enough as a LSN is a moving target, so I would agree about using v1
for now, backpatch it down to v19. We should consider some of the
patterns covered by v2 once we know more about how users use this
feature.
