No worries, it happens. :)

Thanks for continuing to try to work through everything. I know it can
be a difficult process, but it's all towards a (hopefully) improved and
better PG.

Ok, that helps clarify things. As does the rest of your email, for me,
anyway.

I believe we do want to improve pgbench and your changes are generally
welcome when it comes to adding useful capabilities. Your explanation
was also helpful about the specific requirements.

For my 2c, at least, while I'm definitely interested in this, it's not
nearly high enough on my plate with everything else going on to get any
attention in the next few weeks, at least.
I do think that, perhaps, this patch may deserve a bit of a break, to
allow people to come back to it with a fresh perspective, so perhaps
moving it to the next commitfest would be a good idea, in a Needs Review
state.
Thanks!
