Well, you could move it forward by doing the legwork to identify which
queries are worth merging.  Is it really sane to do a global "select
format_type() from pg_type" query and save all the results on the client
side?  I wonder whether there are cases where that'd be a net loss.
You could do the experimentation to figure that out without necessarily
having the C skills to make pg_dump actually do it.
