pg_dump COMMENT ON DATABASE sometimes inappropriate
pg_dump emits COMMENT ON DATABASE (if the database has a comment)
even when dumping only an individual schema or table. That seems
inappropriate, especially when copying data to a different cluster
where the named database might not exist or might have a different
comment that shouldn't be overwritten. Does anybody else think
pg_dump shouldn't emit COMMENT ON DATABASE in these cases?
