Doesn't appear to be on this list, but shouldn't the fact that PSQL
translates undoublequoted identifiers to lower instead of upper case be
mentioned? Also, I think a pretty simple workaround would be to have
PSQL search for the upper case identifier, and if not found, search for
the lower case. This should allow a migration path while the tools and
functions are being translated (and should, perhaps, stay around forever
as a session option for old databases)
