You can then decide to dump only the first subtable, the second or all the data with pg_dump.
I have similar issues and this is the solution I am working on (still not done).

I am aware of this, yes, but the data in question is all (both sets) contained on a single table. That's why I was looking for a way to do a 'dump where (select foo where bar = 'criteria')' structure.

you are aware you can dump a table at a time, right? pg_dump -t foo
dumps table foo. A partial dumping scheme would probably involve
using pg_dump with various flag in combination with a script that
makes a list of things to dump.
