I don't think it could be possible to create logical walsenders on a standby if
AllowCascadeReplication() is not true, or am I missing something?

If so, I think it has to be set to true for the logical walsenders in all the case (like
done in V62 posted up-thread).

Andres, made the point up-thread that RecoveryInProgress() is always true, and
as we don't want to be woken up only when there is a time line change then I think
it has to be always true for logical walsenders.

Good catch, thanks! Done in V62.
