Thank you for your comment. I am fine with leaving the behaviour in
read-only transactions as is if anyone don't complain and there are no
risks.
As to the error messages during recovery, I think it is better to improve
it, because the current messages are emitted by elog() and it seems to imply
they are internal errors that we don't expected. I attached a updated patch
for it.
