Alvaro,

I tried this and now my Hoover makes this horrible noise and smokes.  ;-)

All:

Seriously, all:  when I said that "users" were asking for Autovac in the 
backend (AVitB), I wasn't talking just the newbies on #postgresql.   I'm also 
talking companies like Hyperic, and whole groups like the postgresql.org.br.   
This is a feature that people want, and unless there's something 
fundamentally unstable about it, it seems really stupid to hold it back 
because we're planning VACUUM improvements for 8.2.

AVitB has been on the TODO list for 2 versions.   There's been 2 years to 
question its position there.   Now people are bringing up objections when 
there's no time for discussion left?  This stinks.
