The code reads:
def encloseSpaces(self, exp):
"""When table/field names contain spaces, this will safely enclose them
in quotes or whatever delimiter is appropriate for the backend.
"""
ret = exp
if " " in exp:
delim = self.spaceEnclosureChar
if not ret.startswith(delim):
ret = "%(delim)s%(ret)s" % locals()
if not ret.endswith(delim):
ret = "%(ret)s%(delim)s" % locals()
return ret
So yes, it could easily be changed to eliminate the reference to
spaces, and simply quote everything. Is this what we want to do?
