Do you think this should only be implemented for hash indexes? I'd think
we'd do it for all existing index AMs?

I'm not all that excited about unlogged hash indexes. Yes, that'll
remove a annoying hazard, but I probably won't use them anyway. I am
somewhat excited about the more general unlogged indexes feature.
