Patrick,

Can you ask OpenJPA to quote ALL identifiers for a particular
data source?

You might have an identifier (with some databases) that is 
declared as "a", but if you access it without quotes in a query
it will be auto-uppercased to A and won't match.

Rather than a special case for SQL reserved words, the ability
to quote all identifiers or quote none is generally more useful.
