select * from pg_database \g (format=tsv) | wl-paste -t application/x-libreoffice-tsvc

Implementation of tsv format should not be hard.

What do you think about this?

I wonder if it would not make more sense to add support for text/csv to LibreOffice's clipboard code rather than implementing tsv in PostgreSQL. The tsv format is even less clearly defined than the csv format which at least has one RFC even if many homebrew their own versions of it.
