Hi,
I gone ahead a little and tested this patch and it works like was
proposed, I agree that it's not a bug fix but a new behavior so -1 for
backport.
While applying patch against master
(1129c2b0ad2732f301f696ae2cf98fb063a4c1f8) it offsets two hunks.
Since format() has regression tests I suggest that one should be added
to cover this. It could worth to add the new behavior to the docs,
since there no explicit example for %I.
I performed the follow tests that works as expected using some Portuguese words:
postgres=# create table test (nome varchar, endereço text, "UF"
varchar(2), título varchar);
CREATE TABLE
Time: 80,769 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', attname) from pg_attribute join
pg_class on (attrelid = oid) where relname = 'test'; format
----------"UF"cmaxcminctidendereçonometableoidtítuloxmaxxmin
(10 rows)
Time: 1,728 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'endereco'); format
----------endereco
(1 row)
Time: 0,098 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'endereço'); format
----------endereço
(1 row)
Time: 0,088 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'あああ');format
--------あああ
(1 row)
Time: 0,072 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'título');format
--------título
(1 row)
Time: 0,051 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'título e'); format
------------"título e"
(1 row)
Time: 0,051 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', 'título_e'); format
----------título_e
(1 row)
Time: 0,051 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', '_título');format
---------_título
(1 row)
Time: 0,047 ms
postgres=# select format('%I', '1_título'); format
------------"1_título"
(1 row)
Time: 0,046 ms
Thank you for this!
