Why do we need it for physical slots? The syntax in repl_gram.y is as follows:
/* CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT slot TEMPORARY PHYSICAL [options] */
K_CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT IDENT opt_temporary K_PHYSICAL create_slot_options
...
/* CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT slot TEMPORARY LOGICAL plugin [options] */
| K_CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT IDENT opt_temporary K_LOGICAL IDENT
create_slot_options
The logical slots do need output_plugin but not physical ones.
