The point I'm trying to make is that it seems like this discussion is
getting driven entirely by the standby case, without remembering that
recovery.conf was originally designed for, and is still used in,
a significantly different use-case. Maybe we had better take two
steps back and think about the implications for the archive-recovery
case.
