This is interesting. If I understand correctly the idea here is to be
able to determine which triggers will get fired based on the role the
database plays?
E.g; I have a REPLICA TRIGGER and thus I can use that on a
subscriber/slave to take replicated data and create reports automatically.
How do we deal with other problems such as a PROMOTED state?
