If hostile's wanted, then we can come up with something hostile ;-).
Much better is to try to take a different perspective.
There are a number of features that were *turned down* for 9.1,
deferred for 9.2, because they weren't sufficiently ready at the
appointed time. There were 26 patches "Returned with Feedback"; there
are likely several of them which, if given the special handling given
to Synchronous Replication, could have been drawn into 9.1.
It's only fair to try to get the release out, so that these people
that have been waiting patiently have opportunity to get their
submissions into 9.2. The longer they wait, the more reason to get
hostile for better reason...
