This is a totally different story from the topic discussed in this
thread. psql never adds double quotations to column name even with
upper case col names.
test=# create table t6("ABC" int);
CREATE TABLE
test=# \d t6 Table "public.t6"Column | Type | Modifiers
--------+---------+-----------ABC | integer |
If you want to change the existing psql's behavior, propose it
yourself.
