Anyway, I worked on your diff a bit more:
- keep having -U and -u separate (as discussed)
- use Uflag instead of duidflag
- bail out if the duid is all 0.
- allow specifying the drive to dump by duid.part

While looking at this, I noticed we don't support specifying the duid

I was looking for something like this. Manly to make dump -W work with

How would you decide whether to use the file name or the duid then? I

Hi!
This diff adds a -U flag to dump that allows using disklabel
UIDs in /etc/dumpdates. That makes incremental dumps possible when a
disk is roaming between device files.

I like the idea. I would have liked to read an explanation for the
selected solution though, or a brief description of it.
I'll add a description below for the benefit of other readers.
