We already have hot_standby_feedback, so using the name feedback is best idea.
I am suggesting that we send feedback even if we do not fsync, to
allow the master to track our progress. Hence the name of the second
parameter was just fsync.
So both names were suggested because of links to those terms already
being used for similar reasons elsewhere in Postgres.
