> Cannot parse PostgreSQL CSV and Text formats.
> We cannot seem to parse the stock PostgreSQL Text format, see 
> - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testRandomPostgreSqlCsv()
> - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testRandomPostgreSqlText()
> - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testPostgreSqlCsvNullOutput()
> - org.apache.commons.csv.CSVPrinterTest.testPostgreSqlCsvTextOutput()
> I am guessing that the issue is that in PostgreSQL, the escape character is 
> the same as the quote character:
> {quote}
> QUOTE
> Specifies the quoting character to be used when a data value is quoted. The 
> default is double-quote. This must be a single one-byte character. This 
> option is allowed only when using CSV format.
> ESCAPE
> Specifies the character that should appear before a data character that 
> matches the QUOTE value. The default is the same as the QUOTE value (so that 
> the quoting character is doubled if it appears in the data). This must be a 
> single one-byte character. This option is allowed only when using CSV format.
> {quote}
