Well, we didn't until we had an issue to get informations from the
tgargs column of the pg_trigger catalog. I don't remember the details
right now, and I still didn't check how psql works with this, so I may
be wrong. The only way I could find to fix the issue was to set
bytea_output to escape. It probably is specific to pgAdmin.
If we can't fix this another way, we can have a workaround. We only need
this setting for pgAdmin's browser. Not the query tool. It would be a
nice and quick workaround.
