Agreed.
I don't see the problem... just say "rebuild any invalid indexes
before you run pg_upgrade".
I don't think pg_upgrade should take the responsibility of fixing
everything broken before you run an upgrade. Making that rod for our
backs looks pretty bad here and could get worse if other situations
come to light.
Maybe it should have a mode where it detects that it would fail if you
attempted the upgrade...
