Hello all

According to https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-syntax-lexical.html, 
"Key words and unquoted identifiers are case insensitive." And "SQL identifiers 
and key words must begin with a letter (a-z, but also letters with diacritical 
marks and non-Latin letters) or an underscore (_). Subsequent characters in an 
identifier or key word can be letters, underscores, digits (0-9), or dollar 
signs ($)."

So far so good. Non-latin letters are included, which I take to also include 
the danish letters æøå/ÆØÅ. 

However, name-folding is odd for these letters. Of these three create tables, 
the two first succeed, the last one does not (G and g is equivalent, Æ and æ is 
not). 

create table æblegrød (a int, køn text);
create table ÆblegrØd (a int, køn text);
create table ÆbleGrØd (a int, køn text);

Can anyone explain the logic that rules this. 

Regards Niels Jespersen
