That's a good idea, but then it's questionable whether we need the -n
switch at all.

Sure we do --- for backwards compatibility if nothing else.

It might be simpler to extend the -t switch to accept:
pg-dump -t 's1.*'

That would not be the same thing --- that would mean to dump *only tables*
from s1, rather than objects of all types. Anyway, I think it's a bit
late in this cycle to be proposing to implement wild-card matching.
Maybe for next time someone can do that, but for 7.5 I think we should
limit ourselves to cleaning up any design flaws of the already-submitted
patch.
