One of the things in my way is that when using pg_resetwal to put the
NextXID way into the future (to push the old cluster close to wraparound for

files for that around. Should pg_resetwal create the files in the gap
between the old NextXID and the new one?
I think that you should add this patch to the next commit fest to
track it properly:

Actually this is the wrong patch (this one is for PG-12, not for HEAD).
Will update later today.
But yes, putting it into the next commitfest after initial discussion is
the plan.
