So you're replacing
pg_ctl | rotatelogs
which everyone learns in his first hour of using Unix, by some arbitary
command-line option that people are going to have to learn. Next week,
we'll see four or five additional patches to add support for all the
other log rotation programs. Soon, we'll run out of logical option
letters. How does that improve anything?
All that you're doing here is adding syntactical complexity for no
technical or usability gain.
If the documentation is insufficient, please be invited to improve it.
