What about adopting the modifier syntax you're adding to COPY?

Where exactly would you put the modifier, and why is that better than
the existing #option convention?

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION foo()
RETURNS BOOLEAN
LANGUAGE plpgsql WITH opt1, opt2
AS $$...$$;

That is, the specification of options is made outside of the language in question. It might only effect a particular language (plpgsql in this case) and be ignored otherwise (or trigger an exception), but it's clean and very much like what you have elsewhere.

Best,

David
