It seems like there are three sets of things you might want here:
pre-data, data, post-data.  So in the end we could end up with:

--pre-data-only
--post-data-only
--data-only
--no-pre-data
--no-post-data
--no-data

And then maybe someone will want just the create index commands and
not the constraint commands.  It seems like it might be more elegant
to come up with a single switch where you can list which things you
want:

--sections='predata data'
--sections='postdata'
--sections='index'

Just thinking out loud....
