Yeah. I think it should be folded into "Formatting", since it really is
only an output-formatting option.

I have a problem with the "Query Buffer" section, also: I don't think
\i, \o, etc have anything to do with the query buffer. Could we split
this section into "Query Buffer" (\g \r \e \p \w) and "I/O Redirection"
(\i \o \s), or something like that? Perhaps \copy could go into the
redirection section too, rather than suffering a shotgun wedding with
the large-object commands.

regards, tom lane
