Yeah, Dan recently implemented the DEFERRABLE transaction behavior
which was discussed on the list, so I added a
--serializable-deferrable long option to pg_dump in my repo, and I
had to look at that comment and the the current -X usage for several
minutes before I decided I shouldn't also add a corresponding -X
option -- and even then I wasn't feeling entirely sure about it.
My first recommendation would be to rip it out, but a more explicit
comment would have saved me that time.
