I think this will be an exercise in time-wasting, and very possibly
destabilize *both* tools.  pg_dump has never been designed to reconnect
to a different database; for instance there isn't any code for resetting
all the internal state that it gathers.  I think forking a separate
pg_dump for each database is a perfectly fine arrangement, and should be
left alone.
