The pending feature to select a subset of table columns to replicate is 
not "column filtering".  The thread might still be still called that, 
but we have changed the patch to not use that terminology.

Filtering is a dynamic action based on actual values.  The row filtering 
feature does that.  The column list feature is a static DDL-time 
configuration.  It is no more filtering than specifying a list of tables 
in a publication is table filtering.

So please consider organizing the documentation differently to not 
create this confusion.
