Thanks Josh. I was under impression that it is desirable.
It certainly makes sense to be used with the existing database infrastructure.
In terms of features, apart from separating LISTEN so that it can be actually used on Standbys, wouldn't it be a matter
ofincluding the notifications in the WAL stream, as simple packets ?
This would guarantee same behaviour as on the master.
