It is easy to add the table name to the message, but ...

Do we have any guideline about the message for identifier names? We've
already had serveral "table.column" messages, but "schema.table.column"
might be preferred if there are tables with the same name in different
schema. In addition, separated quotes ("schema"."table"."column") are
more SQL-ish than single outer quotes. Which should we use?
At any rate, we need to adjust many regression test and .po files
if we change such kinds of messages.
