I imagine that your solution would work, but the larger issue is that I
am sending the SQL from an R program, and not using the psql console.  I
could launch it the console programmatically and send copy commands to
it, but that's just adding more moving parts.  Having everyone be a
superuser is good enough for now, thanks anyway.
