Perhaps the objections in that thread were because the proposal involved inferring the privilege to ANALYZE from other privileges, rather than having an explicit MAINTAIN privilege?
That is true; but it seems worth being explicit whether we expect the user to only be able to run "ANALYZE" using defaults (like auto-analyze would do) or if this additional capability is assumed to be part of the grant. I do imagine you'd want to be able to set the statistic target in order to do vacuum --analyze-in-stages with a non-superuser.
