Given the following trivial trigger example:
 -- create language plpgsql;
 create table foo (a integer, b text, c timestamp);
 create function foo_insert() returns trigger as $$ begin     raise notice '%', new;     return null; end; $$ language
plpgsql;
 create trigger foo_ins before insert on foo     for each row execute procedure foo_insert();
 insert into foo values (1, 'two', current_timestamp);

I am surprised to see

NOTICE:  (1,two,"Sat 09 Feb 16:47:44.514503 2008")
INSERT 0 0

I would have expected
NOTICE:  (1,'two','Sat 09 Feb 16:47:44.514503 2008')
INSERT 0 0

i.e., a row whose columns look as though they went through quote_literal
rather than through quote_ident.

This is with yesterday's 8.3.0 (Feb 8 17:24 GMT)

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Patrick
