The frequency of vacuum and analyze would seem to belong under Routine
Vacuuming in the Maintenance chapter.  Setting max_fsm_relations belongs
under the entry in the big list of configuration parameters.  Setting
max_fsm_pages also belongs in that list, but the parts that refer to the
VACUUM output should be put near the Routine Vacuuming section.  Create
loads of clickable cross-references.

Btw., please don't enshrine promises about future versions in the
documentation.  Either create a patch that makes the indicated changes
(recommended, since the problem appears to be analyzed) or just document
the status quo.
