My general impression of the thread is that nobody really wants to
reject the patch (because we all know that we need a lot more logging
options than we currently have) but at the same time nobody seems
quite certain why someone would want to look at this precise bit of
information.
I mean, it's already possible to get log messages at the start and end
of a checkpoint, so there's no problem with finding out whether a
checkpoint was in progress at the time something was slow. In fact,
you can even figure out which phase of the checkpoint you were in.
