Yeah, we have had similar experiences.  Even if this can't be done
for every release or for every data type, bringing over statistics
from the old release as a starting point would really help minimize
downtime on large databases.
 
Of course, release docs should indicate which statistics *won't* be
coming across, and should probably recommend a database ANALYZE or
VACUUM ANALYZE be done when possible.
