I know your patch was not based on Vinayak's old patch because
coding style is different between him and you.

Yeah, I'm happy if you added his name as co-authors because I checked
the document including his old patch as a reference. :)

Thanks!
Committing the patch on PG13 makes me happy because Progress reporting
features are important for DBA. :)

Actually, I've changed my mind.
Even if there is no FDW support, Progress report for ANALYZE is still useful. Therefore, FDW support would be preferable but not required for committing
the patch, I believe. :)
