Asa result, we will not update our remote to local LSN mapping of the origin. Allowing for duplicate data to be
applied.
I agree with your analysis. When the subscriber restarts the logical
replication, changes that happened since the last acknowledged LSN
would be replicated again.
With commit 3f28b2fcac33f, we reset the replication origin in
apply_error_callback() but I guess moving it to the PG_CATCH() block
in start_apply() might work.
