I agree on the observability enhancements (the PR draft gives a bunch of
coverage on this) and the usefulness on the knobs.
I think this also highlights that there are a lot of helpful features in
PostgreSQL 14 -- it may be tough to distill them all down into a list
for the release notes themselves. I think typically we try pick 5-7
features to highlight, and we're at about 10 or so proposed.
On the flip side and going off-script, do we need to select only a few
features in the release notes? We can let the press release provide the
general highlights and use that as a spring board to pick out particular
features.
Thanks,
