Bruce,

I think that having an option for another escape syntax (such as using
ESCAPE AS clause in delimited format (non-csv) COPY) with a default of '\\'
is a good compromise that will allow users to escape their data (like COPY
currently is), or by specifying another escape character allow all of their
backslashes to be treated as data.

I'll start a new discussion about it on a new thread soon.

Thx,
Alon.
