Dear Amit, Thanks for giving comments!

We can later extend physical > replication syntax when we want to expose such an option via physical > replication. The main intention for us is to shut down logical walsenders. Therefore, same as above, I want to develop the feature for logical replication once and then try to extend if we want. TBH I think adding physicalrep support seems not to be so hard, but I want to keep the patch smaller. The new patch will be attached soon in another mail. Best Regards, Hayato Kuroda FUJITSU LIMITED
