- Enables display of progress messages at <literal>INFO</literal> level.
+ Sends a detailed <literal>INFO</literal> message to the client
+ for each table as it is processed.

I'm not keen on "Sends ..." here. The fact that INFO messages are
sent to the client is already implied by the message level itself, so
mentioning the destination in these option descriptions seems
unnecessary.

I'd vote something like:

ANALYZE:
Prints detailed information about analyzing each table at INFO level.

VACUUM:
Prints detailed information about vacuuming each table at INFO level.
