The idea of hooks sounds quite good to me indeed. The
issue is not PR, it's indeed pgcluster benefiting from
the maintenance of postgresql and avoiding the hassle
of having to resync its code at each postgresql
change.
I will propose something along those lines once I get
a more stable pgcluster and have a better grasp at all
details of its code.
I could send a mail to the slony and gorda people at
that point to see if they're interested in
coordinating efforts.
