It is Friday here, so I would easily miss something.. It is possible
to use COPY FROM with a list of columns, so assuming that you could
use a default expression with nextval() or just a SERIAL column not
listed in the COPY FROM query to do the job, what do we gain with this
feature? In which aspect does the preallocation of a range handled
on the client side after being allocated in the backend make things
better?
