Description:
If you select "Dump views" with any backup, you get the alert:

"Unhandled exception: global name 'views_by_schema' is not defined"

After that, the dump feature is not available anymore, until you restart the administrative tab.

How to repeat:
1) from the "admin" tab, select "data dump".
2) choose any database
3) check the "Dump View" box

An entry has been added to the 5.2.27 changelog:

If "Dump views" was selected for a backup, the following error was generated:

Unhandled exception: global name 'views_by_schema' is not defined

It was necessary to restart the Administrator in order to enable the dump facility again.
