Is that a good approach? The --create option should create the DB, yes. But...DB settings should, IMO, be done as part of the normal state dump/restore 

ie. If I have previously issued a "create database" then a pg_restore should be able to create a matching database.

Would there be any appetite for a patch to at least implement this as an option? Which leads to setting other config parameters and the settings for ALLOW_CONNECTIONS and CONNECTION LIMIT.
