Online recovery of Tablespace

Hi,

I am designing backup strategy for a PostgreSQL database (v9.3). I have a
scenario for recovery of tablespaces:

1. Backup of whole database (including individual tablespaces which are
stored on different disks) has been taken at 11AM

2. My disk which stores tablespace- tblspc1 crashed at 2:00PM

3. Can I restore the backup of 11AM (only for one tablespace) and then
recover that tablespace to 2:00PM state?

Is this possible? I have attached the steps I tried (I believe logically my
steps are wrong, since I am using recovery.conf but I am not replacing data
directory).

But is there any way to specify in recovery.conf or otherwise that I would
allow me to do recovery of transactions of a particular tablespace? A
custom solution which occurs to me is using pg_xlogdump contrib. Has anyone
tried something similar?
