It's right that we use "STREAM STOP" rather than "STREAM END" in many
places such as elog messages, a callback name, and source code
comments. As far as I have found there are two places where we’re
using "STREAM STOP": LOGICAL_REP_MSG_STREAM_END and a description in
doc/src/sgml/protocol.sgml. Isn't it better to fix these
inconsistencies in the first place? I think “STREAM STOP” would be
more appropriate.
