Hello,
Could there potentially be an option in addition to -t "table_name", to
either:
a) Examine all relationships and dump all dependant objects
b) Dump only table named "table_name"
One can argue that when asking for "a" table one really only wants that
table information, and nothing else. Some people of course can argue
that just a table by itself may not be usable by itself in some
situations - so that's why the option described above could cater both
situations.
I wish I could just give you a patch but there are probably people who
know pg_dump internals who could produce such patch in 10x less amount
of time.
