I wasn't agreed on it ;-)

The primary objection I've got is that I think this will be a very
considerable increment of work for exactly zero increment in
functionality, compared to being able to copy from a view.  (If you're
not seeing why, consider that COPY is a utility statement not an
optimizable statement; you'd have to change that classification, with
resultant impacts all across the system.)  There are other places
where the effort could be more usefully spent.



By "what everyone is agreed on" I meant "copy from a view". ;-)

cheers
