Yes. We only enable it if you want to save the entire database and if
you choose a custom or tar dump.
As a matter of fact, this is kind of weird. Since pg_dump has a --blobs
command line option, it defaults to on, unless you want to save a
specific object. In that latter case, you can use --blobs to force
saving Large Objects with it. Yet another bug fix is needed, I suppose.

Right. Surely because you don't have Large Objects.

Nope. You use --blobs if you want to save Large Objects. Text or bytea
columns, in the HEAP or TOAST table, are always saved.

You mean the "export dialog"? I don't have the issue with it. Will look
into this anyways.
Thanks.
