May I be allowed to use '\n' as a delimiter for "copy from"? I was able to use it to "copy to" a file, and it worked as expected, but when I tried to "copy from" the file, I got an error because it treated the end of line as the end of the tuple (which I recognize is documented behavior). If the copy command expected a 1:1 relationship between the fields in the "copy from" file and the fields in the target table, then it seemed to me it could read the file correctly? I can see that it might be considered too dicey to allow.
