There is always room for improvement. This stuff applies now only
when creating an index in the non-concurrent case because an index
cannot be created on a partitioned table concurrently, and this
behavior is documented as such. If we are going to improve this area,
it seems to me that we may want to consider more cases than just the
case of partitions, as it could also help the monitoring of REINDEX on
schemas and databases.
I don't think that this fits as an open item. That's just a different
feature.
