Releasing a hot standby which *only* works for users with an operational
ntp implementation is highly unrealistic. Having built-in replication
in PostgreSQL was supposed to give the *majority* of users a *simple*
option for 2-server failover, not cater only to the high end. Every
administrative requirement we add to HS/SR eliminates another set of
potential users, as well as adding another set of potential failure
conditions which need to be monitored.
