Hi Uwe,

Don't have experience with other databases,
but your description seems to be consistent.
It also means that from OpenJUMP you can :

just use unquoted lower case identifiers if you want a case insensitive 
behaviour
any case unquoted identifier for a case sensitive behaviour

One can say it is a convention over configuration choice, as you can get
both behaviours without having to use quotes.
