--multidump-prefix=foobar and it creates foobar.1.predata, foobar.2.data, foobar.3.postdata or something like that? The number would help to sort them appropriately, and the string would ensure that you know what each file is ... perhaps we could have %-escapes in the name to expand to both of these? Perhaps we could have other %-escapes for things like database name --- so you could say --multidump-filename=%d.%n.%t.dump ... but then it would be nice to have strftime escapes too. Or is this too complex?
Yes, I think it is. We do not have to be infinitely flexible. KISS seems apposite.
