The first item of section 'E.1.3.10. Server Applications' is mine and
has this TODO (though maybe that should be better marked up?) text:

|IS IT CLEAR FROM THE DOCS THAT THE REPLICATION SLOT IS NOT TEMPORARY?

So I guess we need to decide on that before release. The current doc is
AFAIK:

| This option causes the replication slot specified by the
| option <literal>--slot</literal> to be created before starting the
| backup. In this case, an error is raised if the slot already exists.

I guess it does not hurt to have something like "to be (permanently)
created before starting", but what do others think? Is it clear enough?
