Off-list I was notified that the new WAL summarizer process was not
yet added to the glossary, so PFA a patch that does that.
In passing, it also adds "incremental backup" to the glossary, and
updates the documented types of backends in monitoring.sgml with the
new backend type, too.

Kind regards,

Matthias van de Meent.
