Write that shell script. Or python integration. Although I haven't tried in a while, the problem I have been content to leave un-solved is that I haven't been able to meaningfully simplify the model of recovery.conf generation in a way that handles a lot of use cases. Instead I impose a model almost as complex as recovery.conf itself but not-quite recovery.conf, which is already well-documented, familiar, and common to many postgres tools. So, in principle it'd be nice to simplify, but I haven't seen nor been seeking a drastic simplification as to warrant carrying a feature in WAL-E just yet.
