Thanks for testing!

Well I have to say I agree with Peter that the option name I came up
with is pretty confusing, not sure createdb-only is much better as it
also includes GRANTs etc.
I think from a technical POV it's useful as it closes a gap between
pg_dumpall -g and pg_dump -Fc $DATABASE in my opinion, without having to
potentially schema-dump and filter out a large number of database
objects.
Anybody else have some opinions on what to call this best? Maybe just a
short option and some explanatory text in --help along with it?
