There's already a way to specify where xlogs should be via -X/--xlogdir. What that doesn't do is put the xlogdir where a DBA would naturally expect to find it. When that DBA doesn't find it in the place they expect, very bad knock-on decisions are likely to result.
I don't understand what that natural place is that you refer to, and it seems that others don't either. Could you walk us through how one would use the new option?
