I agree with Tomas upthread that it's unclear whether this needs to be in core.
There are many system parameters a database admin is likely to be interested
in, diskspace being just one of them (albeit a very important one for many
reasons), and there is nothing that makes the SQL interface (or postgres core
for that matter) particularly more suited for this job than other existing
tools.

Why is SQL level crucial for this?
