People wait...I guess the point is we want to avoid as much downtime
as possible.  Before 6.5 came out with a consistent pg_dump utility,
I was prepared to knock down the site nightly for backups.  The 
appearance of consistent pg_dumps was a welcome surprise, what can
I say? :)

I posed the question because my assumption was that it wouldn't be
that hard to roll it into pg_dump if it works well and is reliable,
and that this would be desirable.
