Thanks for the patch, that's exactly what I was testing today, as a
simple way to handle the problem reported.  I'll check that in more
details tomorrow, running a bit out of time today..

Do you think that it is worth adding a sentence about this restriction
in the docs in the section dedicated to the pipeline meta-commands?
We could just add a simple sentence like "<command>COPY</command>
command is not supported while in pipeline mode."
