Hmm. I still tend to prefer the -f/--filenode interface as that's
more consistent with what we have in the documentation, where
relfilenode gets only used when referring to the pg_class attribute.
You have a point about the fork types and extra segments, but I am not
sure that --relfilenode defines that in a better way than --filenode.
