I like the progress reporting, we need to do that with a lot more stuff.

postgres_fdw join pushdown is pretty huge.

Relation extension speed improvements are pretty huge too.

snapshot_too_old is quite important in some environments.

Degree-based geometry funcs
Phrase full text search
jsonb_insert
Index-only scans with partial indexes was improved
synch_commit = 'remote_apply'

...

Thanks!
