I didn't mean the option is dangerous. My point is: I don't think it
would be interesting to add this change to the mainstream pg_upgrade
because the usecase is very limited (others will correct me if I'm
wrong), so the other option is to code it yourself. And this might be
dangerous (because of very limited tests, and so forth).
