Maybe. I think that the pg_amcheck situation is a lot worse, because
users could easily interpret --parent-check as an additive thing.
Totally changing the general locking requirements seems like a POLA
violation. Besides, amcheck proper is now very much the low level tool
that most users won't ever bother with.
