There are plenty of source comments (and probably documents) describing that
checkpoint is performed by bgwriter, but the patch that you posted
didn't correct

That's very helpful. I'd like to hear what you think we should not change
for the backward compatibility, and what we can do. AFAIR you agreed
to rename recovery.conf, so I don't guess that you want 100% compatibility.
