Probably what Robert, Yeb and I think is to leave the current
sync standby in sync mode until either its connection is closed
or higher priority standby connects. No complicated rule is
required.
To do that, how about tracking which standby is currently in
sync mode? Each walsender checks whether its priority is
higher than that of current sync one, and if yes, it takes over.
