It seems rather antithetical to one of the main goals of pg_dump,
which is to provide a dump that can reliably be loaded onto other
machines or newer versions of Postgres.  I don't think that we
should provide such a foot-gun in hopes of getting relatively
minor performance improvements; especially when we have not
exhausted the alternatives.
