It isn't on the open items list because it isn't a _must_ fix for 8.0,
though it is still in my mailbox. As I remember it is to allow objects
to be created when the schema doesn't exist, and for creating more
portable pg_dump CREATE statements. If someone wants to fix that, they
have to get it working and get agreement to put it in during beta.

It is on the TODO list (the missing schemas part).
