The 9.4 documentation for streaming replication still starts out by
making you set up archive_command and restore_command.  Isn't that
obsolete now with replication slots?  Shouldn't the first step be to set
up replication slots and then go from there?

If so, I think replication slots should feature more prominently in the
release notes.
