That's exactly what we do already. The complaint was that the locale-aware downcasing is broken (not to put it too finely) in Turkish locales, leading to unexpected/unwanted results for identifiers that are not keywords. My own opinion is that the correct response is to fix the Turkish locale tables, but I can see where that might be beyond the skills of the average Postgres user. Thus I thought a reasonable compromise would be to override the locale for the handling of A-Z, allowing it to determine what happens to high-bit-set characters only. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
