Is WAL planned for 7.1? What is the story with WAL? I'm a bit concerned
that the current storage manager is going to be thrown in the bit bucket
without any thought for its benefits. There's some stuff I want to do
with it like resurrecting time travel, some database replication stuff
which can make use of the non-destructive storage method etc. There's a
whole lot of interesting stuff that can be done with the current storage
manager.
