I'd like to see that.  Last time this has been discussed, and Robert
complained to me immediately when I suggested it, is that this is not
worth it with the many complications around syscache handling and
resource cleanup.  It is in the long term more stable to use a model
where a parent process handles a set of children and decides to which
database each child should spawn, which is what autovacuum does.
