I was wondering about that.  You could argue for either "it's a new
feature" or "it's a bug fix".  It's a simple enough change that I see
little risk in it, so the argument against backporting seems weak.

If there are not objections, I'll just copy the current vacuumlo code
in toto into 9.0 and 9.1.
