Please see the start of the thread at
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/a8de371e-006f-4f92-ab72-2bbe3ee78f03%40manitou-mail.org
where what is proposed is compared to what \copy and COPY
already provide.

About the CSV acronym itself, the COPY documentation
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/sql-copy.html
already refers to it as "Comma Separated Values", even though
as we know, the delimiter is user-configurable.
There's no difference in psql that would justify a different wording.
