ok, I'm thinking how can the feature be integrated into the core.
BTW, I'm failing to understand why cluster_rel() has no argument of the
BufferAccessStrategy type. According to buffer/README, the criterion for using
specific strategy is that page "is unlikely to be needed again
soon". Specifically for cluster_rel(), the page will *definitely* not be used
again (unless the VACCUM FULL/CLUSTER command fails): BufferTag contains the
relatin file number and the old relation file is eventually dropped.
Am I missing anything?
