Sorry, didn't want to step on toes here. I know that sometimes if you
perfectly know a system you get blind over alternatives, and wanted to
throw in an idea.
The format of pg_dumpall could be a tar of single pg_dumps as well,
making pg_dumpall just call pg_dump for each db, putting that output
into the tar output from pg_dumpall. But again, just an idea, I don't
mind really. I'm just a sysadmin who wants things as easy as possible.
Maybe fixing pg_dumpall to include that -E is easier.
