we quote column names that are sent as mixed case, since we assume the  
same case sensitivity rules as PG.  but if you're sending a string to  
ORDER BY, we have no idea what that is.  It could be  
"call_some_function(virtual.Virtualization, 12)" or something like  
that, and we aren't parsing that.  You should be sending SQL  
expressions and not strings to order_by() if you'd like SQLA to know  
something about it.
