I guess this means that it would be possible to load (for example)
a file with 2 columns into a table with 3 columns? Like this:
load "my2columnsfile" insert into mytable (mycol13, mycol1);
Another thing which would be nice is to be able to select only some
of the columns from the file, like this:
load myfile(1,2,5) insert into mytable (x, y, z);
This would be very useful (for me, at least).
The 'raw' COPY should be restricted to superuser only, so that no user
can bypass views, triggers and so on.
