It's orthagonal.  The kinds of configurations we're talking about simply 
define what it will mean when you commit a transaction "with synch".

However, I think we're getting way the heck away from how far we really 
want to go for 9.1.  Can I point out to people that synch rep is going 
to involve a fair bit of testing and debugging, and that maybe we don't 
want to try to implement The World's Most Configurable Standby Spec as a 
first step?
