I reviewed this last version and I have a few comments.

Shouldn't we add the LSN to be skipped in the "(LSN)"?

It seems it means subskiplsn.

+ * subskipxid in order to inform users for cases e.g., where the user mistakenly
+ * specified the wrong subskiplsn.

It seems it means subskiplsn.

+sub test_skip_xact
+{

It seems this function should be named test_skip_lsn. Unless the intention is
to cover other skip options in the future.

It seems you are removing a test for 705e20f8550c0e8e47c0b6b20b5f5ffd6ffd9e33.
I should also name 029_on_error.pl to something else such as 030_skip_lsn.pl or
a generic name 030_skip_option.pl.
