I think it is pretty unlikely that the logical replication plumbing is
the buggy place. You're just seeing it now becaues we didn't have any
mechanism as convenient to consume logical decoding output. In other
words, I strongly suspect that the hyphothetical bugs are in the logical
decoding side (and snapbuild sounds the most promising candidate) rather
than logical replication per se.
