I disagree with the "mostly" part. As far as I can see, you took the
idea and then made a series of changes to completely break it. For
bonus points, you put back my comment change to make it incorrect
again.
Here's what I got after applying your latest patch:
$ pg_dump --table=t --inserts --rows-per-insert=4 postgres
[...]
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (1);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 2);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 3);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 4);
);
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (5);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 6);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 7);
)
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (, ( 8);
);
INSERT INTO public.t VALUES (9);
)
;
I didn't test, but I'm pretty sure that's not valid INSERT syntax.
I'd suggest taking my changes and doing the plumbing work to tie the
rows_per_statement into the command line arg instead of how I left it
hardcoded as 3.

If it does not default to 1 then what happens when the option is not
specified?
