Bug reference:      14670
Logged by:          Mohamed Akram
Email address:      mohd.akram@live.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.3
Operating system:   macOS 10.12.5
Description:

As per RFC 4122 - https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122#section-4.3 - name
should not be limited to textual data.

​Since it says should and not must an implementation that restricts the name to be textual is still conforming.

Apart from that supplying an SQL example of what you want to work and what happens when it fails would reduce the possibility of mis-understanding what it is you are saying.​
