Comment:
This is a PostgreSQL related issue. The query looks something like this:
{{{
#!sql
SELECT "ticket15586_mymodel"."id", "ticket15586_mymodel"."name" FROM
"ticket15586_mymodel"
}}}
And with absence of {{{name}}} column on the table, one would expect it to
fail (and it does on other SQLite). But PostgreSQL seems to let you select
the table as a ROW object (or something like that - I'm not an expert on
that). So the following queries are valid:
{{{
#!sql
SELECT "ticket15586_mymodel" FROM "ticket15586_mymodel";
SELECT "ticket15586_mymodel".name FROM "ticket15586_mymodel";
SELECT ("ticket15586_mymodel")::name FROM "ticket15586_mymodel";
}}}
With the second being treated as the third, which is a type cast. Don't
know if there is a way to make it unambiguous that we want a table column,
not some weird type thing. I'm going to reopen, so maybe someone with more
PostgreSQL-related knowledge can fix this.
