One reason is that pg_subscription is only readable by a superuser, so we can't even dump them unless we're superuser. Also, restoring a subscription will immediately attempt to start replication, which might be kind of surprising. We had pondered this issue extensively during early review. I don't think we're all happy with the current behavior, but it's probably the safest and easiest one for now. Better ideas are welcome. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
