FWIW, the only interesting case I have in my plugin box for a
background worker that does not attach to shared memory is a template
of worker able to catch signals, to be used as a base for simple
actions. So that's not really interesting. Making the SHMEM flag be
something mandatory on HEAD while doing nothing in the back-branches
sounds good to me, so +1.
