Well, the most likely reason for changing the snapmgr API would be if
Slony were to protest that they couldn't work anymore without access
to an equivalent of SerializableSnapshot.  The longer you wait, though,
the less likely you are to get a warm reception for any complaint.
So I'd advise looking at this sooner rather than later.
