Somehow I thought you'd already submitted a patch?
I sent patch for relatively related problem when somebody  
commenting out item in the configuration file. This item is look  
like easy, but I surprise that this item does not have % prefix.  
The question is if it is only about adding extra comments to  
postgresql.conf file.


If memory serves, we also wanted to have the postmaster log a warning  
if it reloaded postgresql.conf and found values that had changed but  
wouldn't take effect until restart. So presumably the postmaster  
would have to keep an in-memory copy of the parsed postgresql.conf  
and compare that with the parsed copy it gets after reloading  
postgresql.conf.

It already does that.
