Why? The main fork is not actually necessary, and the beginning of recovery would make sure that any existing main fork gets removed and that the main fork gets recreated by copying it from the init fork, which is WAL-logged. So we definitely have to log the init fork, but logging the main fork is just useless data in the WAL record. Or you have something else in mind? -- Michael
