Sure. I've added it here, under "index maintenance":

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Index_Maintenance#Summarize_keyspace_of_a_B-Tree_index

It would be a nice additional touch if there was an easy way of taking
the on-disk representation of index tuples (in this case that would be
little-endian signed integers from bt_page_items()), and from that
output actual typed values. Maybe just for a few select datatypes.
