Backend can check the variable before the worker could have the chance to
initialize it.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is

it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.

* [PATCH 2/2] REPACK: do not require LOGIN privileges

Normally, starting a background worker does require LOGIN, which is
fine.  However, the bgworker used for REPACK has no business requiring
it.  It's just user-unfriendly and prevents repacking tables
comfortably.
