Is there any functionality contained in vacuum that is not contained in
pg_autovacuum?

Suggestion:
Modify the base schema for tables and add a timestamp column for the
last vacuum operation, and a timestamp for the last vacuum analyze.
Finally, a timestamp for the last time that the data was modified via
insert update or delete would be handy (but I realize that this
timestamp might be problematic).

With that data, a crude autovacuum could be generated periodically
whether or not statistics were enabled.
