And you don't. Very very simple plsql code to do it has been posted
dozens of times. You don't have to be a genius to cut and paste it.

Way to go! You tell those guys who you don't pay how to do things!
Those uncaring bastards! Now they'll listen right up and do what you
tell them! Why, if you shout a little louder, we might have
multi-master synchronous replication this time next week!

Wait, I've got a better idea. Get out your checkbook and write them a
check to do it.

Honestly, it's a feature I'd love to have too. But seeing as how I
can't implement it, and don't have a fat enough wallet to pay them to
do it, I'll just put in my vote for it like everyone else. Minus the
F bomb.
