This one was missed for the November CF; submitted in time but not added
to the app until just now. Given that Tom already voiced some specific
things to consider ("detailed review of all WAL replay activities") I
added it to the January one instead. If anyone has been looking for
reason to study WAL replay, by all means knock yourself out before then.
