Hi hackers, I note that we currently expose the usefulness of the quote_identifier function to the user with quote_ident(text).
Is there any reason we shouldn't do the same with quote_qualified_identifier? We could just add a quote_qualified_ident(text, text) ... it would make forming dynamic queries more convenient in databases that use multiple schemas. Clearly a DBA could just create this function himself in SQL (and it wouldn't be difficult), but is that a good reason not to have it in our standard set of functions? Would be happy to cook up a patch for this.
