Ok, seems the way to go. No big deal, just few hours of work to the
cicle "restore in a tempdb", "rename schema", "backup schema", "restore
in consolidated".

Problem is that my application uses JDBC and Connection Pooling. After a
connection is closed, I'll have to set search path again, and again...
Nevertheless, connection pool allows me to have one command to test is
connection is available, I'll try to put SET search_path on there, and
see results. The search path for schema1 will be
SET search_path=schema1,main,public;

Ok, thanks for the clarification.
I'll share my experience and results after I finish this..
