I feel a bit uncomfortable about sticking this sort of limited-purpose
selectivity mechanism into pg_dump. I'd rather see a general filter
method that can select object(s) of any type. Pavel was doing some
work towards that awhile ago, though I think he got frustrated about
the lack of consensus on details. Which is a problem, but I don't
think the solution is to accrue more and more independently-designed-
and-implemented features that each solve some subset of the big problem.
