Check it out and let me know what you think. Here is the Settings file with the YAML Config Settings:

We still need to do a bit more work on the intro paragraph to make Patroni's advantages/benefits a bit more clear. I also might do a bit more magic with the headers/subheads, to stack things a bit more clearly.
In the initial implementation we were using the only option
--encoding=UTF8. In order to have pg_rewind working with postgresql-9.3
we have to enable data-checksums. The naive approach was to enable it
globaly but taking into account some performance degradation it's better
not to do it but make it possible to configure it.
In addition to that fix all problems with setting up password of default
postgres user: execute CREATE ROLE | ALTER ROLE depending on content of
pg_authid
