The important point is to look at the grammar, which doesn't have any
idea what the specific options are in the list. (Well, okay, it had
to have special cases for ANALYZE and VERBOSE because those are reserved
words :-(. But future additions will not need to touch the grammar.
In the case of COPY that also means not having to touch psql \copy.)
