PostgreSQL does require you to use double quotes in some circumstances 
(for example, if you use upper case letters). pgAdmin automatically 
quotes identifiers if you use a name that requires them.

No, you cannot turn it off, and yes, it is safe as long as you remember 
to quote things appropriately outside of pgAdmin. See 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/sql-syntax.html#SQL-SYNTAX-IDENTIFIERS 
for more info.
