Hello,

This is the use case we are trying to address (I work with Samrat). We were wondering why this may not be a good fix?

Using a WAL archive is standard procedure when you do not wish to take
new base backups all the time. This already works now, when archive
recovery is set up the WAL will be automatically fetched from the
archive.

Exactly the same as now - waiting for commit record replication when
reporting commit success to the client and waiting for WAL replication
before writing a data page are orthogonal features.
