My main interest here is that I'm working on replication protocol
support in a rust library. While doing that, I've encountered a lot of
rough edges (as you may have seen in my recent posts), and this patch
fixes one of them.

But at the same time, several small changes to the protocol spread
across several releases introduces more opportunity for confusion.

If we are confident this is the right direction, then v14 makes sense
for consistency. But if waiting for v15 might result in a better
change, then we should probably just get it into the July CF for v15.

(My apologies if my opinion has drifted a bit since this thread began.)
