no, you're misunderstanding me (i think?). what you describe escapes strings - it sounds correct, but it is not what i am asking about.

for example, when using postgres you might want (for some crazy reason) to have a table called "select". you can do that with:

select * from "select";

where the "select" is not a string, but a quoted name. without the quotes it would be a syntax error (as select is a reserved word). how would that work in edbc?
