Yes, that's the key point for me too.  Anyone who doesn't set up for
routine vacuums/analyzes is going to have performance problems anyway.
Attacking that by making pg_dump force a vacuum is attacking the wrong
place.

There's been discussion of adding automatic background vacuums to
Postgres; that seems like a more useful response to the issue.
