Well, somebody had better suggest a syntax for it, preferably without
adding yet another keyword.
Actually, all that needs to happen is for NULL AS to accept '""' as a
string. Right now that produces:
ERROR: CSV quote character must not appear in the NULL specification
What's the issue with that? I can see how NULL AS '"' would break
things, but if I wanted NULL AS '"Josh"' shouldn't I be able to have it?
See previous thread on -patches/-hackers "allow CSV quote in NULL" in
July 2007.
Quite apart from any other objection, doing what you suggest will not be
column-by-column, like what I suggested. It's an all or nothing deal.
cheers
