Reserved keywords and qualified identifiers - Mailing list pgsql-general

Hi,

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/reserved-words.html explicitly states
that qualified identifiers do not have to be quoted even if they are
reserved keywords ("A word that follows a period in a qualified name must be
an identifier, so it need not be quoted even if it is reserved").

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/static/sql-keywords-appendix.html does
not seem to discuss this topic but empirical evidence seems to indicate
PostgreSQL shares the same behavior.

Is it possible to document the expected behavior? I need to know this
information to fix this related bug:
https://github.com/querydsl/querydsl/issues/936

Thanks,
Gili
