I respectfully disagree. In psql, the `\ef` and `\df` metacommands will
also list procedures, not just functions. So at one point we agreed to
consider for this client that functions were close enough to procedures to
use a simple metacommand to list/display without distinction. Why should it
be different for `pg_dump` ?
