Обсуждение: Extend extension file_fdw

Hi.

I plan to extend file_fdw wrapper. I will add options to foreign
server: encoding, format, header, delimiter, dir.

And i have some asks:
- it's better to change name of extension or not
- other suggestions

+1 for existing options.  Using foreign server options as default would 
make definition of file_fdw foreign tables very simple.  OTOH, 
specification of new "dir" option needs to be clarified.  Is it always 
prefixed to filename option?

IMO, no.  Do you have any candidate?

What about other format options such as escape and null?
