Well, I could cetainly do pg_dumpall --globals-only, and then I have to
create a pg_dump file for every database, and then add the \connect in
there; it just seemed easier to use pg_dumpall, though the file split
thing is certainly something I would like to get rid of.
I think I used pg_dumpall because it was an existing tool that I assumed
would be maintained to dump a full cluster.
