Thanks!
I don't see it yet on the public git repo, nor on the -commiters
list. I'll keep an eye out for it.

I'm inclined to think it's not worth the trouble to revisit it. At
most it would be one segment. In fact, in line with your desire to
flush the SLRU pages so they're useful for debugging, we could call
this a feature -- it provides a quick way to check the date and time
of the last need for SLRU summarization. I can see that being a
useful piece of information for forensics.
