It's off topic. But I think custom format would require a major mangling

Oh, I meant just having it create separate custom format files for each
database. As shell scripts all over the world have been doing for years,
but it would be nice if it was simply built in.
I guess it could be done, although I'm not going to do it :-) I'm more
about making somewhat hard things easier than easy things slightly
easier :-) You'd have to invent some sort of way to name files, possibly
by supplying a template to the -f parameter which would fill in some
placeholder, say a %, with the name of the database. Of course, then
you'd have to make sure the database name didn't contain any forbidden
characters.
