My proposal is to provide two additional modes:
--schema-pre-load corresponding to (1) above
--schema-post-load corresponding to (3) above
This would then allow this sequence of commands
pg_dump --schema-pre-load
pg_dump --data-only
pg_dump --schema-post-load
to be logically equivalent, but faster than
pg_dump --schema-only
pg_dump --data-only
It would actually be better, as well as faster, because it will be
guaranteed to work :-) There are known cases where schema-only followed
by data-only fails.
One more note: we need to make sure the corresponding new modes are also
added to pg_restore.
