Sure.
For various reasons mentioned elsewhere on this thread, a PITR based
replication solution would have a lot of appeal, assuming it could be
made to work. The main thing is that it is completely non-invasive to
the master database and all the work is handled on the standby. It
also operates on a trivial mechanism to transfer the files.
