Comment:

 > At first glance, using `manage.py dumpdata` and `loaddata` together
 seems a great way to make a full copy of an existing django installation
 (e.g. for migrating to a different server, or getting a local copy of your
 production data, etc.). Documentation suggests this should be possible.

 I don't see such suggestions in docs.  Given that `dumpdata`  isn't meant
 as a backup tool (databases have their own tool for that), I think should
 not add more options to make it easier or to document a more or less
 feasible scenario.
