I wonder if there's a way to have the server process the matching? That
way we could have LIKE expressions in the switches, which would be
simpler in the code and more powerful. I don't know how pg_dump works
so I can't really answer the question. We desperately need this
capability however, as patches have been floating since before 8.0 and
we still don't have it.
