+1 to document this caveat.

How about 
        Note that while WAL will be flushed with this setting,
        <application>pg_receivewal</application> never applies it, so
        <xref linkend="guc-synchronous-commit"/> must not be set to
        <literal>remote_apply</literal> if <application>pg_receivewal</application>
        is the only synchronous standby.
