Will such a "TOAST" and pg_dump interoperate? That would be nice to have.
But if that's not possible then maybe new dump and load tools will be
needed which cover everything. If not there'll be a new line on the FAQ - I
dumped XXX and reloaded but it's not there.

How do the other databases do BLOBS? Which ones do it well :).

Have a nice day!
