Unfounded? pg_file_write() is in contrib, not core precisely because some considered it to be a possible risk (despite
COPYbeing as dangerous) and wanted to make it a  non-default option.
 

Personally I think a guc to disable it, COPY and other potentially dangerous utility functions would be preferrable but
that'sa whole other argument.
