As I already wrote, this would solve my problem. The application uses a
generic framework which quotes all column names (and such) automatically.

Esp. this would solve the problem for *all other users* of this
application, too. And as I already wrote, too, most of these
users/administrators are not database gurus. They need as much support
as possible to make their live easier.
