Well, it seems to me that currently the FK needs in term of existing indexes 
and locks, and some other object lock needs, are all hardwired. Is it even 
safe to consider having the locks needed for certain commands not be 
hardwired?

Provided I'm not all wrong here, I don't see how having something more 
flexible at restore time than at build time is a win. The drawback is that 
whenever you change a lock need in commands, you have to remember teaching 
pg_restore about it too.

So my vote here is in favor of hardwired knowledge of pg_restore, matching 
target server code assumptions and needs.
