Good to hear!

Definitely.

Hm. That's obviously a bug. Even though not your main point, we'll fix
it :)

Currently it's a bit annoying. We're working on making the UI for it
better. All you can currently do is to skip the transaction doing the
DDL using pg_replication_identifier_advance(). Which requires some
fiddling around.
It's on our roadmap to make
a) skipping the replication of a transaction easier
b) allow to skip individual problematic actions in a transaction

Greetings,
