I think this problem is specific to unstructured data. If you
stick in, for example, "setobs 1 1950" after the "nulldata"

Hmm, not quite. For example:
<script>
nulldata 10
setobs 4 1990:1
x = normal()
smpl +1 -1
store @dotdir/foo.csv --omit-obs
delete x
append @dotdir/foo.csv
</script>
My point is that we ought to find a way to do without the row labels if
the number of observations in the current sample matches the number of
rows in the csv file.
