Looks like there is more and more the need of exposing a function like
libpq's PQescapeIdentifier [1]. Too bad psycopg 2.6 has been released
so recently, I'm reluctant to add such a function to 2.6.1.

Maybe releasing a small Python module exposing just that function,
then add the functionality to psycopg 2.7?
