Have these changes landed yet? I don't see any updates in the documentation website around some of these features. Most notably, I'm interested in read replication and the ability for a read replica to take over becoming the leader (even if it requires a config update and litestream restart) in cases where we aren't using Consul (which is why LiteFS is not a workable solution in our environment).

The changes are still in progress. The blog post was just about future work that we're working on. However, we don't have plans to do failover with Litestream at the moment.
Awesome! BTW, it's really interesting work. The main reason I'm avoiding LiteFS is because of the need for Consul. Does LiteFS support Corrosion at all or a method to bypass the need for Consul? I'm digging a bit deeper into it now just in case.
