So put forward a worked-out proposal for some other behavior.
My first thought is that the -c and -C options create a lot of the
issues in this area. -c in particular is evidently meant for merging a
dump into a database that already contains unrelated objects. (In fact
you could argue that the *default* behavior is meant for this, -c just
changes the result for conflicts.) It seems unlikely that having
pg_dump issue ALTER DATABASE SET commands is a good idea in all of these
scenarios.
I'm also wondering why it'd be bright to treat ALTER ... SET properties
different from, say, database owner and encoding properties.
