No, I don't believe it is. The switch means "don't dump the table named
test1 as found in your search path". So in this case it doesn't do
anything. You could do "-T test.test1" or "-T *.test1" if you want to
suppress that table.
We could have pg_dump throw an error if -t or -T doesn't seem to refer
to any actual table, but I'm not sure that would make it more useful.
Particularly not with wild-card-pattern switches.
