Hello, I just wanted to voice my opinion for this feature... I've implemented a few Production applicaitons with PostgreSQL now and would die for that feature. Right now, I am constantly trying to find way's to make my data more available. I've even resulted to using pg_dump to create read only copies of the database and placed them behind load balancers to make the data more available. Something like this would allow me to quickly leverage a read only node to scale out the applicaiton... If it can at all be built, it would get my first, second and third vote. :)
