It should also be pointed out that the whole thing becomes uninteresting if we get real-time log shipping implemented. So I see absolutely no point in spending time integrating pg_clearxlogtail now.
There are remote replication scenarios over a WAN (mainly aimed at disaster recovery) that want to keep a fairly updated database without putting too much traffic over the link. People in that category really want zeroed tail+compressed archives, but probably not the extra overhead that comes with shipping smaller packets in a real-time implementation.
