Well, that would work if the schema, when restored, is free. If not, you'd like to set the schema name in which you restore before restoring. When you use Oracle, you can, using exp/imp, change the schema you restore in by setting properly the program arguments. I understand that this is not possible with postgres, and this would be a nice feature.
