I think it's the *prime* place for it. It obviously doesn't matter if
you're not affected by $performance_problem, but if you are affected,
then it's quite likely going to be important. Deciding whether to
migrate to a new version will often be a decision about a *lot* of work,
so it'll not be made lightly, and without a motivator.
If we go by that logic, why are we listing parallelism? Why are we
listing new planner/executor features that lead to faster plans? The
reason we do, is that they're addressing concerns that users had, which
they need to know about.

Why?
