It sure would be nice if pg_reorg could support multiple --table arguments. I realize that clusterdb, vacuumdb, reindexdb, and even pg_restore do not support multiple --table arguments (pg_dump being the odd man out), but this seems more like an oversight than an intentional design, per:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2010-08/msg00689.php

I might try to propose a TODO or patch for a few of those in-core utilities first, so that there is some precedent for us.

Allow multiple --table options to be specified on the command-line.

Per Issue #18. SimpleStringList code borrowed from pg_dump and a
pending patch to add similar functionality to pg_restore,
clusterdb, vacuumdb, and reindexdb.

The error handling in reorg_one_table() could still be much improved,
so that an error processing a single table doesn't cause pg_reorg to
necessarily bail out and skip further tables, but I'll leave that for
another day.
