New design discussions are a little bit late for 9.6 I am afraid :(
Perhaps we should consider this patch as returned with feedback for
the time being? The hook approach is not something I'd wish for if we
can improve in-core facility that would help user to decide better how
to tune autovacuum parameters. The VACUUM progress facility covers a
different need by helping to track how long a scan is still going to
take. What we want here is something that would run on top of that.
Logs at least may be helpful for things like pgbadger.
