I noticed the patch's behavior for relations that are members of non-dumped
extensions and are also registered using pg_extension_config_dump(). It
depends on the schema:

- If extschema='public', "pg_dump -e plpgsql" makes no mention of the
relations.
- If extschema='public', "pg_dump -e plpgsql --schema=public" includes
commands to dump the relation data. This surprised me. (The
--schema=public argument causes selectDumpableNamespace() to set
nsinfo->dobj.dump=DUMP_COMPONENT_ALL instead of DUMP_COMPONENT_ACL.)
- If extschema is not any sort of built-in schema, "pg_dump -e plpgsql"
includes commands to dump the relation data. This surprised me.

I'm attaching a test case patch that demonstrates this. Is this behavior
intentional?
