Someone emailed me privately saying they were confused because they
thought pg_dump --no-comments would remove SQL comments, not the SQL
COMMENT commands.  Is this something worth clarifying in our docs?  I am
not even sure how I would express it.  It currently says:

       --no-comments
           Do not dump comments.

We could change it to:

       --no-comments
           Do not dump SQL COMMENT commands

I think this is someone with limited English ability, which could
explain the confusion.

  When a patient asks the doctor, "Am I going to die?", he means 
  "Am I going to die soon?"
