crippled in this way:
it is not possible to have table from extension that will have its data
dumped in normal pg_dump (or pg_dump -a), and will *not* have its data
dumped when doing pg_dump -s or pg_dump -s -t other_table.
you either have data for extension-based-tables in *all* dumps
or
you don't have data for extension-based-tables in *any* dumps.
