I don't think it's any easier to do that as a backpatch than as new
functionality in 7.3 pg_dump. As far as the general issue of a 7.2.2
release goes, I'm personally in favor of one --- there are several
important bugfixes in the 7.2 branch right now --- but I don't do the
gruntwork for patch releases, so I can't complain too much.

I'm pretty sure that won't get past the ATTNAME cache patches, but try
it...
