Roger Keays commented on OPENJPA-84:
------------------------------------

A simple way to implement this would be to quote all identifiers. That would 
also mean less work maintaining a list of reserved words.

> Escape sql reserved words in column names

> OpenJPA does not escape reserved words in SQL queries when they are used as 
> column names. To escape a reserved name you just put it in quotes:
> INSERT INTO FB_PRIVILEGES (comment, inheritable, level, role, type, username, 
> item_uuid) ...
> on oracle, becomes 
> INSERT INTO FB_PRIVILEGES ("comment", inheritable, "level", role, "type", 
> username, item_uuid) ...
> Looking at the code in DBDictionary, it appears that the escaping is done for 
> table and sequence names by appending a numeral to the name. There isn't 
> really any good reason to do this instead of quoting the identifier.
> table.name identifiers would have to be escaped as "table"."name" if both 
> table and name were reserved words.
