Mmm. I was confused with recovery target + pause. Actually promotion
works as so and it is documented.  Anyway it is a matter of the next
version.

I forgot to mention the patch itself, but what the patch does looks
fine to me.  Disabling pause after setting SharedProteIsTriggered
prevents later re-pausing (from the sql function).
