I have checked on the docs. I quote from
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/static/sql-set.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/sql-set.html
/>value/

constants, identifiers, numbers, or comma-separated lists of these.
DEFAULT can be used to specify resetting the parameter to its default
value.
Identifiers are text. I suspect pgadmin expects numbers, regardless.
