Fixed.

OK, I went with "The function".

Agreed.

I am inclined to mention reindexdb because we mention the SQL command
option in the text. Here is the updated text:

This is done by specifying a <literal>TABLESPACE</literal>

A <option>--tablespace</option> option was also added to <link

Uh, I think we need both items. We are removing a feature and asking
people to use an existing feature that was previously undocumented. I
think having two items makes it clear that the feature existed in
previous releases. I just tried merging them into one item and there
were just too many changes for it to be clear.
