Yes there is. Do the schema only dump of the table in question, comment out the
Indexes and rules you don't want. Load the data. Go back to the schema dump
comment out the table and uncomment the Indexes/rules,etc .
Or
Write a script that does the same thing automatically.

I thought you where looking to exclude only one table. As you found out the
dependency issues for one table can be a problem. Doing more than one makes the
process even more brittle.
