Depends on how lean you want to be when doing large COPY...right now
the cost is restricted to having to call a function pointer and a few
branches. If you want to take SQL values, then the semantics of
function calling over a large number of rows is probably notably more
expensive, although I make no argument against the fact that the
non-INTERNAL version would give a lot more people more utility.
