hello ...

this is an absolutely non-starter. the WAL is designed to be "hyper
ordered" and hyper critical. once you fuck up order you will end up
with a total disaster. WAL has to be applied in perfect order without
skipping depending objects and so on. any concept which tries to get
around those fundamental law is either broken.
