The problem is that the two commands do something different, so it
would be misleading.  Renaming VACUUM (FULL) is a good idea in principle,
but I think that is more than 10 years too late.  The compatibility
break would be too painful.

Perhaps you could write a patch to add a column "last_rewritten"
to "pg_stat_all_tables"...

Yours,
