I think this kind of decision should be done from outside utility or
scripts.
It would be better if from outside it can be detected that stand-by is down
during sync replication, and send command to master to change its mode or
change settings appropriately without stopping master.
Putting this kind of more and more logic into replication code will make it
more cumbersome.
