No, it doesn't. I can look into that if you like. The patch was
entirely to satisfy a need some of our customers have. The -T switch
does fill a real need for our customers; our product has a couple of tables
that aren't critical if they aren't backed up, but as the product evolves,
we occasionally add more tables. So it's easier to use a -T switch to
say what *not* to back up, than multiple -t switches to say what to back up.

Regards,

David.
