This seems odd.  I see Brad already told you what to look for; but
putting schema changes in through slonik was _always_ part of the
design.  What's always been true (and what will forever remain so, by
design) is that you can't simply issue ALTER TABLE "n" commands on the
origin for table "n".

Oh, this is interesting.  Glad to hear it.  Can it guarantee that a
sequence won't "roll back" in some really bad case, if you fail over
to the target?  Figuring out how to do that was one of Jan's homework
projects, IIRC. ;-)

I remember when computers were frustrating because they *did* exactly what 
you told them to.  That actually seems sort of quaint now.
