Using COPY avoids this issue ofcourse, because there's a direct
link to the table. Similarly, as of 8.2 it will be possible to do:
INSERT INTO table (blah) VALUES (x,y,a),(f,d,g),(s,f,g), etc...
Which will also avoid the issue.
COPY wont work... my list of columns for insert is also dynamically
built and will never cover all fields in table.
How about doing the two-step? Create a temp table with the columns
you're going to load, COPY into the temp table, and do a INSERT INTO
table (...) SELECT ... FROM temp_table?
