things before dumping. Any comments?



I'm confused. Won't pg_dump quote the keywords it knows its postgres version will need quoted? We can't expect it to have knowledge of future requirements for quoting, unless someone really does invent time travel (in which case someone could just go to the future and bring back version 107.6 and save us all the trouble).
