Yeah, it's not a nonstandard way. But bgworker provides a lot of
inbuilt infrastructure which otherwise we would have to maintain by
ourselves if we opt for option 2. I would have preferred option 3
from the simplicity point of view but I would prefer to make this
PGC_SIGHUP over simplicity. But anyway, if there are issues in doing
so then we can keep it PGC_POSTMASTER but it's worth trying this out.
