Uh ... no.  The primary purpose of REINDEX is to recover from corrupted
indexes, so it has to be based on a rebuild strategy not a compaction
strategy.

If you want to add a REINDEX ALL for completeness, go ahead, but I think
the need for it will be vanishingly small once vacuum compacts btrees
properly.
