Since I use CLUSTER almost exclusively to eliminate bloat, I'd like to
see the before and after value for pg_total_relation_size for each
table. Some didn't seem terribly interested in that, as they use the
command primarily to sequence the heap, so some measure(s) of how
out-of-order the heap was would make sense.

We are talking about an option named VERBOSE, so there's no real
reason not to throw in all useful information.
