pgAdmin shouldn't use quotes on some parameters: search_path,
temp_tablespaces. Perhaps others. I don't find a way to pick them
automatically. For example, their vartype are "string". Which is quite
ambiguous with others "string" parameters like archive_command. Of
course, we can use a specific code for them. It would be really easy,
but I would prefer to find another way.
