I may be completely missing the point here, but it looks to me as though the PITR archival mechanism is also most of a native replication facility. Is there anyone reason this couldn't be extended to replication, and if so, is anyone planning on using it as such?
My memory is fuzzy on this point, but I seem to recall that this is (was?) how replication is more-or-less done for many of the big commercial RDBMS.
