Thanks for advocate, I see here that it even produces that output with
simple spaces.
postgres=# create table x ("aí " text);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \d x
Tabela "public.x"
Coluna | Tipo | Modificadores
----------+------+---------------
aí | text |
This will break copy&paste user actions and scripts that parses that output.
Maybe the patch should consider left/right non-printable chars to
choose whether to show or not the " ?
