pg_basebackup and replication slots

Hello,

The fact that pg_basebackup doesn't use replicaiton slots, is that a 
technical limitation or just a, "we need a patch"?

It is not in 9.5 but it is already there.

commit 0dc848b0314d63188919f1ce943730eac684dccd
Author: Peter Eisentraut <peter_e@gmx.net>
Date:   Tue Jul 21 21:06:45 2015 -0400
    pg_basebackup: Add --slot option
    This option specifies a replication slot for WAL streaming (-X stream),    so that there can be continuous
replicationslot use between WAL    streaming during the base backup and the start of regular streaming    replication.

I believe it does, but only in master so far, not even in 9.5: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/app-pgbasebackup.html

Given the rest of the thread.... any possibility whatsoever that it'd be 
backpatched into 9.5 before release?    Guess it'd be a very welcome addition....


Thanks,

This will be available in 9.6. 9.5 is aimed at being stabilized now,
so no new features are added at this point.

I know this isn't the answer people are looking for but it is also 
possible to back patch this. Of course we won't put it in the main tree 
but this might be something worth leaving outside (until 9.6).
