Indeed. If I use a specific column name like this one, I am seeing
problems with the expanded mode:
=# create table "5 2.2+^.^" ("5 2.2+^.^" int);
CREATE TABLE
=# \x
Expanded display is on.
=# INSERT INTO "5 2.2+^.^" VALUES (1);
INSERT 0 1
=# table "5 2.2+^.^";

[cols="h,l",frame="none"]
|====
2+^|Record 1
<|5 2.2+^.^ >|1
|====

In this case the record is printed like that:
5 2.2+.
While it should show up like that:
5 2.2+^.^
