Hi David,
I am not sure the RETURNING offers you the following behavior ..
What I'm looking for
+--+-+
| original_rid | rid |
+--+-+
| 1| 4 |
| 2| 5 |
| 3| 6 |
Maybe:
Where newvals AS ()
, insertval AS (insert...select...from newvals) #NO RETURNING
Select * from newvals
I believe the insertval CTE is guaranteed to run even if not directly involved
with the main select statement.

You can make function what returns integer and has input parametars as
other columns of the table:
INSERT INTO testing (category, name, fk_parent) (input parameters)
returning rid
Then SELECT rid as OriginalId, make_copy(other columns) as new_rid From
testing
Kind Regards,
Misa
