No, PostgreSQL folds all unquoted identifiers to lower case, not
pgAdmin. The query you enter in pgAdmin (which would need to be CREATE
TABLE "WorkSchema"."PERSON"...) is exactly what you would need to enter
in psql or any other application you might use.
The dialogues shield you from all the SQL so you don't need to know
about the quoting. If you're writing raw SQL queries though, it is
expected that you know the syntax and semantics offered by the server.
See

NTIFIERS for details.
