While not a severe need this section would be well served if it were divided
into:

x.1: Primary - Checkpoint Configuration
x.2: Archive & Replication

Addressing the apparent confusion that people may have that the checkpoint
parameters impact the recency of the archive is necessary but probably
deserves more than a byline in a paragraph explaining exactly how the two
bounding checkpoint parameters function - a concept complex enough by
itself.

x.2 could also be separated into log shipping and warm/hot standby
subsections. They probably do not warrant separation into their own
top-level sections but physically separating and framing them within this
section would introduce the needed mental boundaries between the pieces that
affect primary operations and those that are specific to whatever form of
replication/archive the user may be using.

I'll add this my own doc patches listing but I'm not expecting any immediate
attention right now.
