I assume that is going to add quotes to a field that contains quotes:

        CREATE TABLE test(x TEXT);
        INSERT INTO test VALUES ('"a"');

        COPY test TO STDOUT WITH (FORMAT CSV, DELIMITER E'\t');
        """a"""

I have added this to the TODO list:

        Allow COPY "text" format to output a header
