I'll admit that I've not followed this very closely, so perhaps I'm
misunderstanding, but I thought our prior discussion lead to the idea
that pg_dump would always dump out subscriptions with 'NOCONNECT', so
that a restore wouldn't automatically start trying to connect to another
system.

In which case, I don't quite understand why we need a
"--no-subscription-connect" option.

Thanks!
