However, this issue already exists without the proposed patch.
Since file_fdw already reports progress partially, querying multiple
file_fdw tables can lead to inaccurate or confusing progress reports.
You can even observe this when analyzing a file_fdw table and also
when copying to the table with a trigger that executes progress-reporting
commands.
So, I don’t think this issue should block the proposed patch.
In fact, progress reporting is already flawed in these scenarios,
regardless of whether the patch is applied.
On second thought, supporting progress tracking for COPY used by file_fdw
could increase the chances of multiple commands being tracked simultaneously
by a single backend. This means the command progress view might show
incorrect results more often.
As I mentioned before, this issue already exists, but it currently
only happens in rare cases. I don’t think the fact that the issue
already exists is a good reason to introduce more, and likely more common,
scenarios where it could occur.
With that in mind, I'm thinking of withdrawing this patch for now.
