Uh, we do have this for SP-GiST:
Allow SP-GiST indexes to optionally use compression (Teodor Sigaev,
Heikki Linnakangas, Alexander Korotkov, Nikita Glukhov)
I am unclear how far downt the API stack I should go in documenting
changes like this.
It is also a bit misleading - the idea in that change is that now index representation can be a lossy version of actual data type (a box instead of polygon as a referende, so a changelog entry can tell "Allow SP-GiST index creation for polygon datatype."). There is no "decompression" for such thing. "compression" sounds like gzip for me in user-facing context.
