Possibly, but it isn't happening in the foreseeable future, for the same
reason that we don't auto-update shared_buffers and the other shared
memory sizing parameters: we can't resize shared memory on the fly.

autovacuum would probably be a reasonable place to put it.  We don't
currently have any good way for autovacuum to get at the information,
but I suppose that an integrated autovacuum daemon could do so.
