I don't like exposing this information only on title processes. It would be difficult for client apps (for example, PGAdmin) to track this kind of information and it is restricted to local access. I'm not objecting to display this information in process title; I'm just saying that that information should be exposed in functions (say pg_stat_get_vacuum_[hit|miss|dirty]) too.

I tend to build the simplest possible thing that is useful enough to work. The data is getting stored and shown now, where it wasn't before. If it's possible to expose that in additional ways later too, great. The big step up for this information is to go from "unobtainable" to "obtainable". I'd prefer not to add a quest for "easily obtainable" to the requirements until that big jump is made, for fear it will cause nothing to get delivered.
