Agreed.
I think the bigger problem there is replication failover, but that's also a different issue (keeping the statistics from the *standby* wouldn't help you much there, you'd need to replicate it from the primary).
The report that I've received regarding this RFE has been triggered by experiencing issues with long term deployments in a large scale industrial environment. The point of this RFE is to be protected against those issues in the future. While this doesn't seem to be a very frequent occurrence, I wouldn't consider this a corner case not being worth attention.
If there is an expectation for the performance loss to be less of a problem in the future, would it make sense to make this an opt-in feature until then?
