After further looking at this, I've decided that the existing behavior
of pg_dump and pg_restore is actually reasonable, it's just poorly
documented.  Accordingly, I fixed the documents.

The only code change I applied was to disallow the combination of
--create and --clean options.  This combination doesn't have any
practical use (if you're going to create a fresh database, what's
the point of issuing DROP commands for the individual items?),
and it isn't implemented correctly (the DROPs are applied to the
wrong database).  I don't see any point in trying to make it work
sensibly, since it has no value anyway.
