I got his impression, too. :-(

Since I've be confused a bit by your statement, I'll try to express it
differently:

These frameworks simply qoute *all* identifiers, no matter if the
identifier is a keyword or not. This is done to take the burden of the
programmer to take care about identifiers. So it simply does not matter
when a keyword is added.

I wished, pg_dump could do the same and easy admins life :-\
