Don't get your expectations too high. I just said I'll try :)


I guess this will also require changes to pg_restore to support:

-g globals only
-r roles only
-t tablespaces (conflicts with pg_restore's table specification of -t)

And of course being able to restore individual databases and specifying restoration of a table/function/trigger within specific databases.  I guess that could be done by specifying a database to restore, then asking for a single function.

e.g.:

pg_restore --database=my_source_database -P my_function(argtype) -d my_destination_database /database/backup/file

And adding database entry support to the listing file.
