I would have loved to be able to pass tablespacename:tablespacedir
though, but sadly I wasn't able to figure out how to retrieve that
information without creating another connection to the database.

This feature would be a nice addition to pg_basebackup, and I agree with that it would be preferable to use names of oids if possible.

This feature might be missing because of some other limitation I fail
to see, if so let me know. Please be gentle, this is my first patch ;-)

It seems like you have attached the wrong patch. The only attachment I see is 0001-SQL-assertions-prototype.patch.

Best regards,
