Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-7689:
----------------------------------------

The problem is that Postgres coerces unquoted identifiers everywhere to lower 
(iirc) case and has no way to disable this, to put it very mildly, questionable 
behavior; afair the request to add a flag similar to mysql one for ANSI was 
also not viewed positively when I tried.
So either everything has to be lower case, or everything has to be quoted (and 
upper case, for simplicity I guess).
