So then the best way to do this kind of backup\restore is to use pg_dump?
Is there any plan in the future to be able to do some sort of file-level
backup like SqlServer?
Actually you can do single databases, but you must also include some
other directories besides the database directory.  You would need to
include everything, excluding things in the "base" directory, but not
exclude your databases directory in "base".
Will that not cause trouble if you've added users though?

Huh, maybe it will, but then I don't see how.  Can you be more specific?

Well, user info is stored in "global" (as is the list of databases, and it looks like language handler definitions too). Run strings over the files and you'll see.
