I'd suggest extending the CHECKPOINT command so you can say:
CHECKPOINT <text message>
e.g. CHECKPOINT 'starting payroll Feb04';

I believe you are thinking of a savepoint rather than a checkpoint.CHECKPOINT <text message>
e.g. CHECKPOINT 'starting payroll Feb04';

CHECKPOINT.
But now you come to mention it, it would be better just to have a
command that simply wrote a named record to the xlog, so it can be
searched for later...
