Dear PG hackers, I have two question regarding Unicode support in PG:
1) If I set my database and connection encoding to UTF-8, does pg (and future versions of it) guarantee that unicode code points are stored unmodified? or could it be that pg does some unicode normalization/manipulation with them before storing a string, or when retrieving a string? The reason why I'm asking is, I've built a little program that reads in and stores text and explicilty analyzes the text at a later point in time, also regarding things like if the text is in NFC, NFD or neither. and since I want to store them in the database, it is very imporant for PG not to fiddle around with the normalization unless my program explicitly told PG to do that. 2) How far is normalization support in PG? When I checked a long time ago, there was no such support. Now that the SQL standard mandates a NORMALIZE function that may have changed.
