I'm not sure I agree with this. I can use the pg_stat_activity table to
see if autovacuum is doing something right now, but what I want to be
able to do is look through my logs and see that table_foo hasn't been
vacuumed since last week, or that table_bar has been vacuumed 7 times
today. Can I do that just with the stat system alone?
