according to this article
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=409471, the naming of
tables, and fields is restricted to 63 characters and must start with
an underscore or letter. Nothing is however said about in which
character set.

Am I allowed to name a table field < Änderung_1 >. The Ä is a german
letter contained within the UTF8 character set.

It does work, but I have had some tools (JDBC based) that choked on those 
tables. And I had some troubles running pg_dump/pg_restore with those tables. 
But as I did that merely out of curiosity, I didn't bother to find a way on how 
to deal with them.
