Recently I ran into an issue where restoring from pg_dump from one machine to another with non-matching tablespaces.  The primary issue is that index creation will fail if the tablespace does not exist from the dump.  I was thinking to best solution for this would be a pg_dump option such as --ignore-tablespaces which would not dump any tablespace related data.  This would benefit restoring a dump from one machine to another where there are different disk or tablespace topologies.

If such a patch were presented and found to be acceptable code wise, would it be a generally useful enough option to be included?
