Can we have a discussion on the name?
I find the name pg_subscriber too general.
The replication/backup/recovery tools in PostgreSQL are usually named
along the lines of "verb - object". (Otherwise, they would all be
called "pg_backup"??) Moreover, "pg_subscriber" also sounds like the
name of the program that runs the subscriber itself, like what the
walreceiver does now.
Very early in this thread, someone mentioned the name
pg_create_subscriber, and of course there is pglogical_create_subscriber
as the historical predecessor. Something along those lines seems better
to me. Maybe there are other ideas.
