Emmanuel Bourg commented on CSV-64:
-----------------------------------

PostgreSQL can also use a special string for null values:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-copy.html

It supports two default text formats, a tab delimited format and a comma 
delimited format. The tab delimited format uses \N for null values. The comma 
delimited format uses an empty string.

> There should be a way to denote that a string is null rather than empty.
