I would've found it handy, but didn't know about it and wrote my own in
Perl. Inside a transaction it drops the index then rebuilds it using what
it gets from pg_get_indexdef(), and it looks at the index files on disk
before and after to show disk space saved (or grown) per index and total.  
I run it weekly in cron.

Is something like that of use to anyone else?
