(yes, i've been backlogged)

We have cascading replication as a major feature, which I agree it is.
But I think we should add the (closely related) base backups from
slave to the list as well - I've had more people say they're really
going to use that one than the cascading replication. Perhaps add them
both on the same bullet point?

Sure, reword it however you want.  I've not been paying much attention
to replication stuff, so I don't really know what's important there.

FYI, I didn't get involved in making the 9.2 major features list because
I felt I already had a heavy hand in creating the original 9.2 release
notes.
