That has at least as many failure modes as the other representation.
I don't follow, what do you mean with "failure modes"? The oid in the
filename? I suggested to use a sequence instead but you didn't comment
on that. Are there any other failure modes which could cause a diff -r
between two different databases to break?
(This might be a bad idea for some other reason, but I noticed a few
other users requesting the same feature when I googled "pg_dump split".)
A better approach to the problem might be to have a tool which did a
comparison of structures rather than a textual comparison of dumps. For
extra credit, such a tool might even try to produce a sync script for
you ...
Of course, that task might involve more effort than you want to devote
to it.
