I guess my main concern is that we'll have a solution to the problem of

users do not read up on VACUUM or autovacuum. This is at the expense of
making it appear to be suitable for the general user base when it isn't,
in my opinion. That isn't the fault of autovacuum but is a function of the
cost of ordinary vacuum.

Would you mind expounding on why you think autovacuum isn't suitable for the general public? I know it's not a silver bullet, but I think in general, it will be helpful for most people.
