Good idea, can I tweak that a bit?

No need to specify the name at pg_dump time.

For text files, just use an option to specify whether we change the
actual schema name and replace it with the text :PGDUMPSCHEMA.
pg_dump --relocateable-schema (or alternate option name)

Then when we reload, we just run
psql -f pgdump.file -v PGDUMPSCHEMA=newlocation
