That sounds reasonable, although it does seem a little strange for
analyze to actually perform cleanup.

Now that we have FSM, the cost of VACUUMing insert-only tables is a lot
less. Does that possibly justify running VACUUM on insert-only tables?
On tables without GIN indexes, that wouldn't be a complete waste,
because it could set hint bits, which needs to be done sometime anyway.
