I think that pqEscapeIdentConn should be in a separate section of the documentation, entitled "Escaping Identifiers for Inclusion in SQL Commands". Or else we should merge the existing sections "Escaping Strings for Inclusion in SQL Commands" and "Escaping Binary Strings for Inclusion in SQL Commands" and then put this in there too. On a perhaps-related note, does anyone understand why "Escaping Strings for Inclusion in SQL Commands" is formatted in a way that is needlessly inconsistent with the preceding and following sections? I was surprised by the magnitude of the doc diff hunk in this patch, but when I looked at it it seems to read more clearly with these changes. I have yet to fully review the code but on a quick glance it looks reasonable. ...Robert
