I have been through this thread... And to be honest, I have a hard
time understanding for which purpose the information of a 2PC
transaction is useful in the case of logical decoding. The prepare and
commit prepared have been received by a node which is at the root of
the cluster tree, a node of the cluster at an upper level, or a
client, being in charge of issuing all the prepare queries, and then
issue the commit prepared to finish the transaction across a cluster.
In short, even if you do logical decoding from the root node, or the
one at a higher level, you would care just about the fact that it has
been committed.
