I said: > I think the wisest course may be to revert to the 7.1 \connect behavior There is another possibility, which is to migrate to the new behavior over time. I like having pg_dump quote the names in \connect, because that gives us a shot at working with names that have embedded spaces. We could leave pg_dump as it stands in CVS tip, and modify psql to work as follows: 1. Quoted names in \connect are taken as quoted identifiers. 2. Unquoted names are taken literally (not downcased). Point 2 would allow forwards compatibility of existing dump files, while point 1 makes the new pg_dump behavior work. After a release or two we could migrate to regular SQL-identifier handling in \connect. This'd require a little bit of uglification in psql (another option_type for scan_option()) but it doesn't seem too terribly awful. Comments? regards, tom lane
