Sure,

After entering the function with the relstates
SUBREL_STATE_INIT/DATASYNC if the relstate finally reaches
SUBREL_STATE_CATCHUP, finish_sync_worker is not called and
returns with the slotname. Then the slotname will be used by the
subsequently launched apply worker. Of course, it immediately
ends if failed to catch up, though.

Aren't you missing something? or I am?
