With 2ndquadrant working on Postgres-XL (http://www.postgres-xl.org/), I think that you can be confident that you will see a lot of the features being proposed to core postgres. It will just take some times to build the building block necessary like: global index, distributed sequence, repartition ...
I quite confident that the postgresql from 5y in future will be quite different in term of storage / server topology support. I won't be surprise pg_bouncer capacity to finally make its way to core when we have a coordinator.
Postgres has steady progression (even if not fast enough for some people) but they are moving without compromising robustness of their product for the users.

Some work started in this direction. I didn't follow closely the whole thread but I don't think that got commited in PG10.

Postgres has been amazing in shipping the foundation required to deliver complex feature.. Logical Replication is an example of it, all the piece commited in the last 6y allowed to make this patch achievable.

(Author here) Thanks for the comment. I used Grafana and it's a great tool. One of the motivation behind this project is to be Battery included. A tool like Grafana require a timeseries DB (graphite or influx) then you need something to collect the metric like collectd and maybe an aggregator like statsd.
I want Pome to be simple to run as binary.
I did discuss the idea of allowing to disable the web and support pushing data to existing tools. I've been quite busy lately but the project is not dead.
