I'm uneasy about the way the xids-to-be-skipped are presented as 
subscriptions options, similar to settings such as "binary".  I see how 
that is convenient, but it's not really the same thing, in how you use 
it, is it?  Even if we share some details internally, I feel that there 
should be a separate syntax somehow.

Also, what happens when you forget to reset the xid after it has passed? 
  Will it get skipped again after wraparound?
