That's certainly a part of the confusion, but the "--x-only" options
also put us in a tough spot.

If --data-only had always been spelled "--no-schema" (or "--without-
data" or whatever), and --schema-only had always been spelled "--no-
data", then I think it would be a lot easier to add statistics into the
mix.
