It's required by the sync replication patch, but has no value otherwise.

Well, we have talked about allowing more signalling long-term, and this
would accomplish that independent of the sync replication, so we might
want to revisit this someday if it isn't included in sync replication.

I also needed this for the progress indicator patch. I used SIGQUIT for the proof-of-concept patch but I wouldn't want to lose that signal for real.
