I always felt is was better for us to have server functions that return

made an external library that pg_dump could share with applications,
would it only be available to C applications?  That seems quite
limiting.

I don't think so.

I imagine that the maintainers of DBD::Pg and phppgadmin, for example, would be very likely to expose them.

And I can certainly imagine using/exposing them in some psql slash commands.
