I remember reading somewhere that it was possible to execute system commands from plperl...  don't know if it's the best way, but you could do an exec of pg_dump from inside a plperl procedure.

is it possible to dump within procedural language/SQL syntax? Using pg_dump from console is very confusing for some end user who don't have Linux skills. so I decide to create a function to do that, and they may call it from my application.
