Re: Revisiting {CREATE INDEX, REINDEX} CONCURRENTLY improvements

Do you have any patches\threads related to that refactoring
(opportunistic freezing of tuples during pruning) [0]?
This may affect the idea of the current thread (latest version of it
mostly in [1]) - it may be required to disable such a feature for
particular relation temporary or affect horizon used for pruning
(without holding xmin).

Just no sure - is it reasonable to start coding right now, or wait for
some prune-freeze-related patch first?
