Thanks fixed.

Currently there is no consensus around this. For now, making this patch to
address failover to next primary as similar to JDBC seems sufficient for me.
On next proposal of patch I think we can try to extend as you have proposed

They are useful without load balancing when multiple standbys are used for
HA.

I think they become more relevant with load-balancing. And, making it
usable when we extend this feature to have load-balancing makes sense to
me.

I tried to check logical replication WIP patch, not very sure how to
accomodate same.
