I don't know, maybe I have a problem with the described use case. I cannot

It seems a little weird to me too, and I would vote against accepting
\create_function as described because I think too few people would
want to use it. However, the idea of an easy way to pull in a file
and convert it to a SQL literal seems like it has many applications.
Yes, this proposal is far too narrow and would not cater for many use
cases I have had in the past.
I like your ideas upthread about \file_read and :{filename}
