This is arrant nonsense. It's a behavior change. You can't make it not that by claiming something about user expectations. Especially since this isn't exactly a corner case that nobody has seen in the fifteen years or so that it's worked like that. People do know how this works.
Yes, I agree that this is not a corner case, so users may already know the current behaviour.
I don't object to changing it, but I do agree with Robert that it's important to quantize such changes, ie, try to get a set of related changes to appear in the same release. People don't like repeatedly revising their code for such things.
Ok. we will then first fix the \COPY TO issue where it does not revert back the overriden psql output file handle. Once this is solved, fix for both COPY FROM and COPY TO, like how it is done in the patch earlier (copydefectV2.patch).
