Yes, It is useful. But situation is different. Most of the times objects are first created, tested and only after finalization can go in the extension update file. Also it can be difficult not to get the object definitions from an extension in the backup from pg_dump. A customer could have to execute commands to create and update extensions for all versions to current. It can be very difficult.
My suggestion to provide an extra option for pg_dump to include objects of specific types only along with switch for a schema.
Thanks for help. Looking out if it is really possible to use extension for our software.

And as most of the functions are dependent on others and having more than 1100 functions it becomes hard to write a list of objects for pg_dump.
Cheers,
