it may be a semantic difference, but is recovery_mode dependent on the existence
of the trigger file, or the timestamp.

"touch" in the above context could either be the creation of the file,
or simply updating the timestamp of the file.

i suspect that the recovery is triggered by the mere existence of the file,
while henry might be talking in the 'update timestamp' context.
