No good ideas, but a few random thoughts. 
1) Can we make vacuum not block analyze?  That way we can continue to 
analyze a table while it's being vacuumed.
1b) If not, can we make auto-analyze bump auto-vacuum?
2) Maintenance windows.  They wouldn't solve this problem, but they 
might mitigate it some.
