I believe Dave has remerged a patch for COPY I posted over a year ago, but
he has not yet published it.  I would guess it has the same bugs as the
original (transaction + error handling) and will meet the same objections
that kept the original patch out of the driver in the first place (we want
a friendlier API than just a data stream).
