OK, here is a new version of the patch that includes the grammar
changes we agreed upon, SGML changes, and \copy support.  I will not
make any more changes without contacting you so feel free to make
adjustments and repost.

I have two open issues.  First, CSV should support WITH OIDS, no?

Second, I found a problem with NULLs.  If I do:
.
        test=> create table test (x text, y text);
        CREATE TABLE
        test=> insert into test values ('', NULL);
        INSERT 17221 1
        test=>

then this:

        test=> copy test to '/tmp/b' with csv;

creates:

        "",

and this:

        test=> copy test to '/tmp/b' with csv NULL 'fred';

creates:

        ,fred

Is that logical?  A non-null field went from "" to nothing.

I think it is caused by this code:

         bool force_quote = (strcmp(string, null_print) == 0);
         CopyAttributeOutCSV(string, delim, quote, escape,
                             force_quote);

The reason it happens is that when the null string is '', it matches a
zero-length string, so the value is quoted.  When the null stirng isn't
blank, a zero-length string doesn't match the null string so it isn't
quoted.    I think we need to add special logic for zero-length strings
so they are always quoted, even if there is a special null string.  This
will make our dumps more consistent, I think, or maybe the current
behavior is OK.  It just struck me as strange.

I did a dump/reload test with a null string and null, and it worked
fine.

Is there any data that can not be dumped/reloaded via CSV?

+    <para>
+     This format is used for importing from and exporting to the Comma

+     such as spreadsheets. Instead of the escaping used by

+    <para>
+     The values in each record are separated by the delimiter character.
+     If the value contains the delimiter character, the <literal>QUOTE</> character
+     or a carriage return or line feed character, then the whole value is prefixed
+     and suffixed by the quote character, and any occurrence within the value
+     of a quote character or the <literal>ESCAPE</> character is preceded
+     by the escape character.
+    </para>
+
+    <note>
+     <para>
+      CSV mode will both recognise and produce CSV files with quoted values
+      containing embedded carriage returns and line feeds. Thus the files are
+      not strictly one line per table row like non-CSV files.
+     </para>
+    </note>
+
+    <note>
+     <para>
+      Many programs produce strange and occasionally perverse CSV files, so
+      the file format is more a convention than a standard. Thus you might
+      encounter some files that cannot be imported using this mechanism, and
+      <command>COPY</> might produce files that other programs can not
+      process.
