As the OP, I'll just note that my organization would definitely find use
for a parallel migrator tool as long as it supported doing a selection of
tables (i.e. -t / -T) in addition to the whole database and it supported or
we were able to patch in an option to cluster as part of the migration (the
equivalent of something like
https://github.com/tgarnett/postgres/commit/cc320a71 ).
