Including both procedures and functions sounds natural from here. Now
I have a different question, something that has not been discussed in
this thread at all. What about patterns? Switches like --table or
--extension are able to digest a psql-like pattern to decide which
objects to dump. Is there a reason not to have this capability for
this new switch with procedure names? I mean to handle the case
without the function arguments, even if the same name is used by
multiple functions with different arguments.
