​I don't know if this statement is actually true but it makes no difference
in reality whether the double-quotes are added in the case where only
lowercase letters and numbers/underscore are used. As far the executor is
concerned the same exact identifier text will be used. Likely, and for
reasoning purposes, it is sufficient to consider that ALL identifiers
generated by pgAdmin are surrounded with double-quotes in the resultant SQL
statements that are sent to the server.
