I'm not convinced that adding a new switch for it is actually a great
idea, and it's pretty late to be doing so anyway, imv.. I'd vote for
just "don't refresh mat views" in pg_dump for this go-round.

My preference would be for pg_dump to actually reproduce what the
current state of the database is, possibly by dumping the exact contents
of the matview as if it was a regular relation, but any such discussion
should be post-9.3.
