This seems a bit ugly, mainly because (1) it doesn't have a natural
translation to long-form switches, and (2) it screws up the usual
habit of merging multiple single-letter switches into one argument.
Perhaps something like
--roles-only
--tablespaces-only
--globals-only
Not sure if there are free single-letter codes for the first two,
but on the whole I'm more interested in having sane long-form names
than sane short ones ...
