2) Is is possible to make the recovery kick in even though pg_control says the database state is shutdown?
Yeah, I think you are right: presence of recovery.conf should force a WAL scan even if pg_control claims it's shut down. Fix committed.
This *should* be possible but I haven't tested it.
There is a code path on secondary checkpoints that indicates that crash recovery can occur even when the database was shutdown, since the code forces recovery whether it was or not. On that basis, this may work, but is yet untested. I didn't mention this because it might interfere with getting hot backup to work...
