Indeed, I think the logical decoding on standby patch just needs to 
change the Assert in GetWALInsertionTimeLine() to check 
SharedRecoveryState is RECOVERY_STATE_DONE or RECOVERY_STATE_ARCHIVE.

Would that make sense from your point of view to add the check on 
RECOVERY_STATE_ARCHIVE or do you think it would need to be more 
"sophisticated"?
