Possibly, but it isn't happening in the foreseeable future, for the same reason that we don't auto-update shared_buffers and the other shared memory sizing parameters: we can't resize shared memory on the fly.
I'm not sure if I like this one too much ... but it would be nice if something like this triggered a warning in the logs, maybe a feature of pg_autovacuum itself?
autovacuum would probably be a reasonable place to put it. We don't currently have any good way for autovacuum to get at the information, but I suppose that an integrated autovacuum daemon could do so.
Don't know why this must be an "integrated" autovacuum. Can't the info about the FSM usage be presented as system views?
