I meant that the number of rolled back transactions due to an error
seems not to be necessary since pg_stat_subscription_errors has a
similar value. So what I imagined is that we have xact_commit and
xact_rollback (counting only actual rollbacked transaction) counters
in pg_stat_subscription. What do you think of this idea? Or did you
mean the number of errored transactions also has value so should be
included in pg_stat_subscription along with xact_commit and
xact_rollback?
Originally I thought your proposal of having the number of rollback
transactions includes both errored transactions and actual rolled back
transactions so my point was it's better to separate them and include
only the actual rolled-back transaction.
