Simon, you have a very legitimate concern. I phoned Tom and he is
planning to start working on the max_standby_delay tomorrow. I am
unclear how it is different from your version, but I hope once Tom is
done we can review his work and decide how to proceed. The fact that we
allowed Tom this huge amount of time to submit an alternative patch is
unusual and hopefully rare.
FYI, Tom and I are hoping to work through all the outstanding issues
before we package up 9.0 beta3 on Thursday, July 8.
