This tells you if the processes are alive and that replication is backed up, but
not how full the queue's are. At least, not all in one screen and not in an
'at-a-glance' format. I agree that the tools are there, but you do have to
dig a bit for all of the data. The other thing that is missing is notification
of failure from the standard toolset. It would nice to have a facility to page or
email people when certain errors are detected.

Another alternative for this part is the rs_subcmp, which need not be too intrusive
on the server, provided you choose you where clauses carefully, but it does require
a certain amount of free processing power on the machine that it is running on.
